KINGSBRIDGE Natural History Society is offering a free guided walk along the Estuary foreshore to see the best wildlife spectacle in south Devon.

Hundreds of wading birds and colourful ducks visit our food-rich mudflats every winter from Arctic regions.

Specialist fish-eating species, such as spectacularly coloured red-breasted Mergansers are here, together with delicately hued ducks like Wigeon and Shelduck and flashy waders like Redshank and Oystercatchers.

Huge flocks of Dunlin or Golden Plover may put on an acrobatic flying display to make the Red Arrows green with envy, and we will see Brent Geese which have flown all the way from Siberia.

Everyone is welcome to join the guided walk which will start from West Charleton village hall car park at 10am on Sunday, February 7.

The walk will take about two hours and includes a moderate hill at first, but is then on the level. There are two stiles to cross and some fields will be a bit boggy so wellingtons are advised as well as warm waterproof clothing.

Bring binoculars if you have them and we will provide telescopes to give closer views. Guides will help with bird identification.
