The strong winds deterred any ideas of birding across the harbour yesterday. CJ7 and 022 made few appearances on the 21st, most notably on the livestream webcam early morning before the stormy conditions ramped up and forced the pair to hunkered down away from the nest. Despite field conditions improving overnight, the 22nd failed to yield many birds, with limited coverage of the harbour. Most notable was a Little Tern fishing in Lytchett Bay for all of 15 minutes. Perhaps tomorrow will reveal the windblown goodie that’s kicking around?
