The 1st-winter Great Northern Diver is still in Poole Park and at Lytchett Bay there was a ringtail Hen Harrier early morning plus 1 Spoonbill. Arne Bay held 9 Black-necked Grebe with just 3 Spoonbill on Shipstal Point. The number of Purple Sandpiper has doubled (!) at North Haven with 2 seen today in front of the Sandbanks beach office. A Marsh Tit was on feeders in the NT car park at Corfe Castle which is just inside our harbour boundary. Lastly, the Hooded Crow was seen again at Manor Farm, Studland.
