Fairly quiet today with most people out enjoying the sun, rather than birds. The White-tailed Eagle pair were in the Wareham Channel this morning before heading up the Frome Valley. In the Lower Piddle Floods there were still 5 Grey Plover, 3 Knot, 1 Little Ringed Plover and 1 Greenshank. There was a 1st winter Little Gull on the Brownsea Lagoon. A female Pied Flycatcher was in a Parkstone garden this afternoon and Garden Warbler were logged at Ridge Wharf, at Bestwall and on Wareham Common. There was still a minor passage of Red Kite with 3 over Brownsea Lagoon, 2 over Oakdale, 3 over Upton and 2 over Hartland. There were also 2-3 Cuckoo and 1 Hobby on/over Hartland this evening.
