Wind and Rain Set In – posted 09/05/14

With all this grotty weather we’ve been experiencing, its beginning to bring back bad memories of this winter when numerous events and trips had to be cancelled and rescheduled which is unfortunately what we’ve had to do with tomorrows trip to Morden Bog. News from around the harbour has been very sparse too with the only real highlight being a singing Firecrest at Arne, suggesting they are breeding there again this year. A sea watch from Branksome produced only 8 Gannet, 2 Fulmar, 3 Whimbrel, plenty of Sandwich and Common Tern, 1 Auk sp and a handful of Swift and Swallow coming in off the sea. At Lytchett Bay 1 Lesser Whitethroat on territory, 3 Greenshank, 85 Shelduck, 1 Cuckoo, 8 Black-tailed Godwit, 2 Lapwing and 1 Redshank
