A Red Kite north over east end of Hartland was a delightful sighting this afternoon. Low tide at Middlebere featured Merlin, Avocet, Curlew, Pintail, Teal, Wigeon, Great Northern Diver and Lapwing. A further 2 Great Northern Diver were between Poole Quay and Brownsea Island. The Red-breasted Merganser at Poole Park Boating Lake offered superb close views throughout the day. The Middlebere Merlin came in at 5:07pm this evening.
