Happy Easter, and a happy one it was too with a kind gap in the weather, giving a real spring feeling to the day’s events. Make the most of it as its supposed to deteriorate again by Easter Monday! Still, another Osprey was logged in the harbour today, although sadly it didn’t linger long as it passed over RSPB Arne. There were also 2 Hen Harrier in and around the Middlebere/Wareham Channel area still and a single Marsh Harrier was seen in Lytchett Bay and a Merlin was out on Slepe Heath. In the still, mild morning air up to 10 Common Buzzard were soaring over the Arne Road. Along North Bestwall Road in Wareham 3 Hawfinch were sat in trees along the road briefly and another was in a Stoborough garden briefly. At Arne 2 Brambling were feeding outside the visitor hut again below the feeders. Out on Hartland there was plenty of birds getting vocal with Meadow Pipit now sounding pretty tuneful along with plenty more Chiffchaff now around the area, also Stonechats and Dartford’s are beginning to get back on territory properly. This coming week will see plenty of new spring migrants arriving into Dorset, such as more Wheatear, Willow Warbler and Chiffchaff, but birds like Yellow Wagtail, Ring Ouzel and House Martin will start appearing too so please, any sightings of migrants from around the Poole Harbour area please report to info@birdsofpooleharbour.co.uk or tweet us at @harbourbirds.
