Harbour Update – posted 08/02/19

Storm Eric hit with a whollop toady which made for a productive sea watch at Branksome, although sadly the rain set in quite quickly and visibility was reduced to almost nothing after 20 minuets. There were a minimum of 50 Gannet and 150 auks (Guillemots and Razorbill) bombing around out in Poole Bay, also 1 Red-throated Diver passed west and diver sp passed east along with c15 Kittiwake west, 4 Red-breasted Merganser west, 11 Brent Goose east and 1 Great Northern Diver west. Out on Baiter an impressive 435 Brent Geese were feeding and in Poole Park the Greenshank was there again. In Middlebere there were 400+ Avocet, 250+ Lapwing, 2 Spotted Redshank and 11 Grey Plover.
