Harbour Sighting – posted 29/05/19

A dreary cold day with highs of 15°C have seen the Sandwich Tern chicks on Brownsea Lagoon being kept warm and dry under their parents, so only a few glimpses of them seen today! The Common Tern have also been hunkered down on their eggs with not a lot of movement. There have also been some Shelduck ducklings whizzing around in the water with their parents who don’t seem to be phased by the rain. With weather conditions hampering the distance the cameras could focus, only 4 Avocet, 2 Dunlin and the 4 Spoonbill were spotted. Over at Holten Lee 6 Goldfinch, a Great-spotted Woodpecker were seen and a Wheatear was seen at Coombe Heath. Over at Hatch Pond a Juvenile Great Crested Grebe was photographed preening itself.
