Finally, the first Sand Martin of the year arrived today with just a single bird over Swineham GP this evening. It took a while considering there have been so many in the UK already this spring. There were 2 more Osprey reports in the UK today, highlighting they’re on their way! In Middlebere this afternoon 8 Spoonbill were settled on the the salt marsh, and two different White-tailed Eagle flew low over the Middlebere Channel, an adult and a juvenile, with another 2 in the Wareham Channel mid-afternoon. This evening 2 Great White Egret and 27 Cattle Egret went in to the Swineham roost.
