Sorry, a bit of a late set of sightings tonight, but its been a rather manic day. As we approach the end of March, Osprey sightings are always likely to increase and this morning at 9:30am we had our first visitor to the Poole Harbour Osprey nest cam, but it wasn’t (as we’d hoped) female CJ7, but in fact a returning Osprey that we saw last autumn known as ‘8C’ who is a 2014 hatched female from the Glaslyn nest in Wales. It’s thought she breeds somewhere further north, so has probably already left the harbour, but still, it was great to see our first Osprey on the nest this season and here’s hoping CJ7 arrives back any day now. There was a second Osprey today that was briefly in Lytchett Bay too. Both female White-tailed Eagles were still in the Wareham Channel area and they also visited Middlebere where they wowed birders who were up on Coombe Heath as both birds flew by, almost at eye-level, heading back towards the Wareham Channel. At Lytchett Fields there were 5 Little Ringed Plover and Wheatear were at Baiter (5), Greenlands Farm (2) and 2 on Studland Beach.
