Harbour Update – posted 09/07/19

An overcast day but still warm with 22°C highs. An Osprey has been seen from Lytchett Fields flying over Otter Island towards Wareham Channel. Another individual was reported from Swineham Gravel Pits along with some House Martin.  Nearby ay Lytchett Bay 3 Greenshank (1cr) were seen the Approach Pool and on Lytchett Heath a churring Nightjar and 3 Reed Warbler were heard.

It was quiet at Brownsea Lagoon today, but a bobbing Common Sandpiper turned up for a short visit. The Sandwich Tern chicks are on the move with most of the juveniles already fledging but not wondering too far from the safety of the Islands.
