Harbour Update – posted 18/10/15

There was a good report of not one but two Great White Egret in Middlebere during the morning, potentially confirming what we thought may be the case that there were in fact two separate birds. Another Short-eared Owl was seen out hunting over Arne moors, whilst harassing a couple of the 7 Marsh Harrier. The two Brambling at the Arne VC were present again feeding in amongst Chaffinch and House Sparrows whilst up to 3 Firecrest can still be seen in and around the car park. Several flocks of Fieldfare were seen passing over the Middlebere track heading north. The Spoonbill flock remained separate with birds both on Brownsea and Shipstal Point, Arne.
