Harbour Update – posted 16/01/24

There was no sign of yesterdays Waxwing in the Upton/Lytchett Bay area, despite much searching by the locals! On the plus side there were 4 White-tailed Eagles around today with the local pair mooching around the  southern shores and then brief visits by females G801 and the recent Christchurch Harbour bird G818. An adult male Hen Harrier was in Middlebere this morning where there was also a Merlin. There was also a Hen Harrier in Brands Bay with the Slavonian Grebe still there too. There was a big 3201 Black-tailed Godwit in Holes Bay north. At Bog Lane in Stoborough the Cattle Egret flock were moving around the Frome Valley.
