Another decent day, with yesterdays Forster’s Tern doing the right thing and reappearing in Lytchett Bay early doors, before then departing back to Brownsea for an afternoon rest, before then heading back to Lytchett Bay this evening briefly according to the bird info services and then settling on Brownsea tonight in the tern roost. There was a sweet cherry on top of the Forster’s Tern shaped cake for some birders when a Red-rumped Swallow whizzed by with Barn Swallow on the west side of Lytchett Bay this morning. From our School Bird Boat this AM, it was a sheer joy to show the group the White-tailed Eagle pair soaring over Arne.
