2023 Pop-Up Osprey Watches
With Osprey activity already building across the harbour as more birds stopover on their autumn migrations, we're pleased to announce that our Pop-Up Osprey Watches are back!
Our next session will be running this Wednesday 16th August from 8am-12noon at BCP Ham Common, with one of our team stationed up on the new viewing platform with telescopes on the look out for bird activity in the Wareham Channel. The platform was built last year in partnership with BCP Council and Haven for this exact purpose, offering great views down the channel, with species such as Osprey and White-tailed Eagle regularly frequenting the area.
Come along for as long as you like – it’s free of charge and everyone is welcome! The platform is fully accessible and parking is also available onsite (though please note that some charges do apply for parking). More information about BCP Ham Common and the viewpoint can be found here.
We hope to see you there! Please keep an eye on our website and social media for future dates for other pop-up watches.
