Harbour Update – posted 13/02/21

The less said about today the better. It was a multiple cup of tea day today, with not many sightings being received other than a short sea watch at Studland seeing several Gannet, 1 Fulmar and 1 Common Scoter with the 3 Scaup still off Jerry’s point and the last remaining 4 Studland Ring-necked Parakeet sat on wires above the Studland Road in Studland Village. Brands Bay had a decent count of c180 Pintail, as well as 13 Knot, 36 Grey Plover, 600 Dunlin, 480 Black-tailed Godwit and a decent spread of the usual winter wetland species. The Common Sandpiper was in Holes NE at the PCW Drain. There were also 3 Black-necked Grebe bobbing around out in Studland Bay.
