Harbour Update – 20/05/26

Another windy, blowy day with a short focus on the sea this morning which didn’t yield much other than 20+ Gannet, c50 Sandwich Tern, c30 Common Tern and 5 Mediterranean Gull. However all three hirundine species (House Martin, Sand Martin and Swallow) were all logged coming in off the sea highlighting that migration is still underway, plus 8 Swift also came ‘in off’. This afternoon our new Osprey arrival ‘5H6’ (aka the Mighty Titch) visited a harbour nest platform.
