Harbour Update – 27/01/25

With more strong winds, lightening, heavy rain and even more strong winds today, perhaps our hopes and predications yesterday of something new being blown in could have become a reality with 2 Velvet Scoter reported in Holes Bay late this afternoon. This would be an incredible record for Holes Bay and we think probably a first for this part of the harbour. No doubt a few folk will be down looking first thing tomorrow morning. We also have a Winter Safari cruise going out tomorrow morning, so will survey the rest of the harbour to check for other blown in waif and strays…..Kittiwake? Gannet? White-billed Diver!?

A Slavonian Grebe was off Jerry’s Point, 2 White-tailed Eagle were in the Wareham Channel, 5 Cattle Egret were at Holmebridge and the Barnacle Goose was still out on Arne Moors.
