Another beautiful day with Osprey sightings pretty much constant all day. It seemed like a few had left, and in fact we even saw one leave on migration from this afternoons Osprey cruise as it circled up to great height over the Wareham Channel before then making a bee-line south towards the Purbeck ridge. There were at least 7-8 present for the most part of the day though with individuals spread across Lytchett Bay, the Wareham Channel and Middlebere. Female White-tailed Eagle G466 was soaring high above the Wareham Channel too this afternoon and there were 2 Marsh Harrier at Swineham. On the Brownsea Lagoon there were 170+ Ringed Plover, 100 + Dunlin and 47 Spoonbill.
