Harbour Update – posted 15/03/20

A count at Middlebere today reported 1 Spotted Redshank, 32 Curlew, 13 Shelduck, 11 Redshank, 1 Firecrest, and a Merlin and Peregrine flyover. Between Norden and Middlebere 17 Skylark were also counted. 2 Ringtail Hen Harrier were reported either side of the Wareham Channel this afternoon. The Peregrines are still present on the ASDA building. An attempted watch for Bittern leaving Swineham this evening was unfortunately not fruitful, but the calmer weather ahead looks promising. Despite no Bittern, 9 Sand Martin, 2 Water Pipit, 3 singing Chiffchaff and c.150 Black-tailed Godwit were recorded.
