There was a pretty dank set of conditions across the harbour for much of the day. Best logged today were 4 Marsh Harrier out over Swineham, 4 Spotted Redshank, 380 Avocet and 1 Great White Egret in Middlebere. Along the lane at Middlebere were 47 Fieldfare and off Jerry’s Point 3 Great Northern Diver and only 1 Scaup seen, but conditions weren’t great. A ringtail Hen Harrier flew over the Corfe to Stoborough Road this morning too.
