Harbour Update – posted 13/03/20

At least 2 Sand Martin were picked up over Swineham GP this morning, with more possible low over the water. Today’s highlight was a male Hen Harrier quartering over Swineham today, seldom recorded in the harbour this winter! Although, a male has been recorded around Wareham Forest on several occasions. Bramblebush Bay held 2 Great Northern Diver and 10 Red-breasted Merganser (5 male  & 5 female).  Outside of the harbour, a female Osprey turned up at Rutland Water today.

With south-westerlies today, turning southerly overnight, what will the weekend hold for the harbour?
