A few unexpected rain showers today but a real highlight of 1 Roseate Tern on the Brownsea Lagoon on the boomerang this morning. It was seen later fishing with Common Terns and Sandwich Terns off South Haven, before heading back to Brownsea. It’ll be interesting to see how long it sticks around! There was also 1 Spoonbill present on the lagoon and 1 Great White Egret flew from Lytchett Bay, up the Sherford River. At Coombe Heath, RSPB Arne, 1 Peregrine was hunting along with 1 Marsh Harrier and Spotted Flycatcher also being present.
