Yesterdays Red-backed Shrike at Lytchett Fields obviously liked what it saw, and stayed the night. It was found again ranging around ‘Whimbrel Field’ at the end of Slogh Lane, feasting on bee’s and beetles. There was also 3 Cattle Egret in the same field with 2 Whinchat and a minimum of 3 Osprey were in Lytchett Bay whilst people were watching the shrike. Spoonbill numbers on the Brownsea Lagoon reached 60, with still several weeks to go until the peak is usually reached in mid-October. Will we hit 100 this year? On Hartland Moor there was 1 Cattle Egret, 2 Common Redstart, 3-4 Spotted Flycatcher and 2 Northern Wheatear.
