Today was a tad calmer, allowing a count of open-water species around the Studland Peninsular. In total 46 Black-necked Grebe were counted between Studland, Shell and brands Bay with 2 Slavonian Grebe off South Beach and another in Brands Bay with only 5 Goldeneye noted! A scan of Poole Bay saw 3 Red-throated Diver, 2 Great Northern Diver, several Great Crested Grebe and 2 Razorbill. The Black Redstart remain in East Quay Road. The Common Crane was foraging again in reeds, salt marsh out from the Middlebere Hide and the ringtail Hen Harrier was seen there too. From the Holton Pools hide there were singles of Green Sandpiper and Marsh Harrier were logged and at Norden sewage works there were c10 Common Chiffchaff and a single Firecrest.
