Harbour Update – posted 31-01/04/20

Posted on: April 2nd, 2020 by Birds of Poole Harbour

Here’s a round up from the last day of March and first day of April. At Lytchett Bay, the 3rd Osprey of the spring was fishing mid-afternoon. On Lytchett Fields 1 Little Ringed Plover, 1 Spotted Redshank and 1 Green Sandpiper were present. Red Kites flew over Lytchett Matravers, Swanage, Upton and Evening Hill. A Swallow also zoomed past one of our team’s house windows mid-morning.

WE also saw an update from Tim Mackrill from the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation that one of their tagged Osprey S1 is now on the move north and we hope that CJ7 is with him somewhere. It was on April 1st 2019 that she arrived back last year so it should be any day now all being well.
