As expected, a pretty dark grey, damp day didn’t produce too much but with all the nonsense on the news there’s no better time to get out and enjoy the true beautiful things in life. A Song Thrush in full voice at Upton CP this morning was enough to pick anyone’s mood up off the floor. Behind PC World there were a minimum of 10 Common Chiffchaff and 1 possibly 2 Siberian Chiffchaff. A Red-throated Diver was out in the Brownsea Channel and off the Houseboats at South Haven there were 2 Great Northern Diver and 4 Black-necked Grebe. In Shell Bay a Great Northern Diver and 1 Black-necked Grebe were feeding and 5 pale-belled Brent Geese were off Middle Beach. On the Pools Field at Lytchett Bay there were 2 Water Pipit and in Upton CP two Bearded Tit (male and female) were feeding in front of one of the viewing areas.

Birds of Poole Harbour Logo Design Competition

Since our charity launched in 2013 we’ve never had an official logo so we’re turning to you, the public for help.

Over the next 4 months we are inviting anyone and everyone who has an interest in local conservation and an artistic eye to help us design our official Birds of Poole Harbour logo.

This is a great opportunity to get creative and have the chance to see the winning logo popping up around Poole Harbour. So why not take the chance and have a go at helping us build our presence in and around the harbour by designing our official ‘crest’
