Harbour Update – posted 04/03/16

A cold, bright start to the day made a few birds active. At Norden Sewage Works the 2 Firecrest were present again along with several Goldcrest, 1 Chiffchaff and 1 Grey Wagtail. In Middlebere the 4 Spoonbill remained with another 1 on Brownsea and a Spotted Redshank was also in Middlebere. Out on Arne Moors a large 1st year female Peregrine was causing trouble and a late night survey there saw 4 Woodcock and 6 Common Snipe. At Holton Lee another 4 Woodcock were counted during the survey and at Lytchett Fields a Barn Owl was out hunting over the fields. In Holes Bay north mid morning there were good numbers of common waders and wildfowl near the cycle path and a Spotted Redshank was at the mouth of the outflow.
