Harbour Update – posted 03/05/23

It’s been a quiet day for sightings despite the lovely sunshine – the strong easterly winds coming through this week could make for some interesting arrivals. The Forster’s Tern has continued to show, moving from Lytchett Bay this morning and onto the Brownsea Lagoon early this afternoon, landing amongst the Sandwich Tern. 1 White-tailed Eagle was reported drifting over the Wareham Channel near Rockley this morning. House Martin activity has continued near Lytchett Fields, which is nice to see after trialling the call playback yesterday next to the House Martin Tower, with individuals collecting mud from the car park close to the tower.
