Harbour Update – Posted 23/06/19

An overcast day in the harbour has made for muggy conditions but sadly no Osprey sightings. The Sandwich Tern chicks are looking big and strong and almost ready to fledge. A chick has finally appeared from under the pair of Oystercatcher, nesting alongside the Common Terns and Black-headed Gull. 4 Spoonbill, 2 Bar-tailed Godwit, 1 Little Egret were also seen.

An exciting development over at Lytchett Fields with the first Southward bound Spotted Redshank dropping in at the back of Sherford Pools. Also there 1 Bar-tailed Godwit, 1 Green Sandpiper,  19 Redshank, 30 Lapwing and 12 Teal were also seen in post breeding movement along with 48 Black-tailed Godwit.

Holten Lee Webcam captured a lovely Dunnock (not regular on the webcam) along with the usual Great-spotted Woodpecker, Chaffinch, Goldfinch and Robin.
