Today a blasting SE ripped across the harbour, and a sea watch should really have been undertaken, having seen all the goodies that were passing Chesil and Portland Bill mid morning. But sadly we couldn’t get down to Branksome but still, we saw Osprey CJ7 very briefly at the Middlebere nest again bringing some nest material to the platform. A few more waders were reported with 2 new Common Sandpiper fresh in at Lytchett Fields along with 2 Little Ringed Plover, 2 Whimbrel and 4 late Wigeon. On the Brownsea Lagoon a very small number of Avocet were displaying and pairing up and 2 Spoonbill were present. At Sunnyside 4 Wheatear were near the scrapes but only a single Little Ringed Plover was there.
