Harbour Update – posted 20/02/22

There was no sign of the Tundra Bean Geese at Swineham today, no doubt tucked away having already found a new set of fields close by, waiting to be discovered by the next lucky birder. The strong winds dropped 2 Great Northern Diver off in Shell Bay, with 6 Black-necked Grebe off Middle Beach with 2 Slavonian Grebe and 8 Common Scoter. In Lytchett Bay there were 2 Marsh Harrier and 2 rintail Hen Harrier were logged around the Arne area. In Poole Park 4 Shoveler was a good count and there were also 4 Red-breasted Merganser. There were still c1000 Black-tailed Godwit in Holes Bay NE and counts of 150+ Brent Geese at Baiter and Whitley Lake. Along Middle Beach c30 Sanderling was also a decent total and c50 Med Gull were around Baiter Beach.
