Harbour Update – posted 17/06/14

Another warm but breezy day saw the female Garganey still at Lytchett Bay, also there now a male and female Pintail, 12 Gadwall, 234 Black-tailed Godwit, 22 Teal, 2 Lapwing and a Marsh Harrier. At Holton Lee a group of 5 Woodlark were feeding together, also there, 3 Dartford Warbler, several newly fledged Stonechat and a Tree Pipit. The Barn Owls have been quite active around Middlebere presumably currently feeding young. Both Marsh Harrier nests in the Wareham Channel seem to be doing well, with the expected fledge date of the ‘alpha’ nest to be in around two weeks.
