The heron purple patch seems to be getting well…purpler! This evening the Purple Heron came back into Littlesea, Studland late evening but was then joined by a Cattle Egret too which means today we had Great White Egret (Middlebere), Little Egret, Cattle Egret, Purple Heron and Grey Heron all in the harbour! It also seemed to be some wader passage took place last night as a newly arrived summer plumaged Curlew Sandpiper was on Lytchett Fields with c40 Dunlin, 7 Greenshank, 2 Common Sandpiper and 8 Green Sandpiper there too. A Red Kite also passed over Lytchett Bay and an Osprey was over the Wareham Channel and in Middlebere.
