Harbour Update – posted 29/04/22

There’s been a hive of Osprey activity today, with 1 hunting in Lytchett Bay this morning, and another seen in the Wareham Channel. Excitingly, CJ7 laid a third egg at 08:57, which is most likely going to complete the pair’s clutch. An unringed Osprey with a fish also put in an appearance on the livestream nest during the afternoon, before being warded off by 022. Otherwise, 5 Wheatear, 1 Whinchat and 1 Redstart were present along with a steady stream of Swallow at Greenland’s Farm in the late morning. Swineham also felt like spring, with 1 Swift, several Sand Martin and Swallow passing through during the morning.
