Harbour Update – posted 05/10/21

Strong gusts continue to linger for another day, until conditions make way and set up for an exciting week ahead. The remaining hirundines continue to slowly filter through, with 2 Sand Martin logged over Lytchett Fields today, while the Ruff  continues its residence in Pool Field alongside 35 Wigeon, numerous Black-tailed Godwit, Meadow Pipit, Pied Wagtail and at least 2 Yellow Wagtail. The adjacent Arable Field was bustling with activity, featuring 1 Whinchat among the 8 Stonechat, as well as a mobile flock of c60 Linnet, Meadow Pipit, Reed Bunting and a hunting Kestrel. Over at the Holes Bay ASDA superstore, both adult Peregrines showed well on the highrise building again.
