Harbour Update – posted 22/06/16

The wader numbers on Lytchett Fields continues to grow with 40+ Redshank, 100+ Black-tailed Godwit and 40+ Lapwing. On Brownsea there were 18 Redshank, 2 Black-tailed Godwit and a Roseate Tern dropped onto the lagoon late afternoon. The tern situation on the lagoon is a bit fragile as the Med Gulls work their way through the Common Tern chicks but thankfully the Sandwich Tern chicks are now big enough to not be gobbled. A Hobby was over the top of Hartland moor and the Firecrest is still singing in the Arne car park.
