Harbour Update – posted 29/09/16

Posted on: October 1st, 2016 by Birds of Poole Harbour

As September comes to an end, the prime time for Wrynecks is almost over. However there was just enough time for one to turn up in a Parkstone garden.. I bet the lucky finder wasn’t quite expecting that! The Lesser Yellowlegs was still on Lytchett Fields with 1 Curlew Sandpiper, 3 Knot, 1 Little Stint, 150 Dunlin, 6 Greenshank, 1 Common Sandpiper, 1 Hobby, 1 Marsh Harrier, 3 Sandwich Tern and 3 Reed Warbler. On the Brownsea Lagoon Spoonbill numbers remain at 37, also there 2 Curlew Sandpiper and 3 Spotted Redshank. A Firecrest was in Slough Lane, Upton with another 3 in the Arne car park.
