Harbour Update – posted 15/10/24

Rather murky again this morning, but it soon cleared away and in the end wasn’t a too bad a day. An adult Ruff at Lytchett Fields was new in and there was still 1 Spotted Redshank there plus 2 Great White Egret were in the bay this morning. The Middlebere Ring Ouzel was still in the Rowan tree feeding along the access track. On the Brownsea Lagoon 45 Spoonbill were roosting and a flock of c200 AvocetĀ were roosting and soon lifted off there and headed towards Middlebere. Along the Keysworth shoreline 3 Marsh Harrier were quartering, male White-tailed Eagle G463 was in the Wareham Channel, whilst female G466 was in Brands Bay this morning. At the PCW Drain it was Chiffchaff central yet again with c40 present, but still no sign of a Yellow-browed Warbler there. There was at least 2 Firecrest in there though and 2 Kingfisher.
