Great idea Jenny. I’m up for that
AQUATIC WARBLER!!! Still can’t believe we caught this stunner at Carey this morning! Made it worthwhile giving it a go between weather fronts. The bird was interestingly a good weight of 15g! #ukbirding

Unringed Osprey carrying fish caught in lytchett bay towards bakers arms, seen from holton lee hide (it was coming towards us) @harbourbirds.bsky.social
Just one distant Osprey this morning during my Lytchett Bay check, it wasn’t around for long. From my pics it looked to be ringed on the right leg, I didn’t get time to upload pics.

Osprey fishing in the Wareham Channel @harbourbirds.bsky.social @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social @dorsetwildlife.bsky.social
@harbourbirds.bsky.social this was the second Osprey we saw from Holton Lee today that caught a fish at #LytchettBay and headed over towards us, over our heads in the hide. The first one was as we walked onto the boardwalk again flying from #LytchettBay and going in the same direction
Several Ospreys seen this morning from the @harbourbirds.bsky.social Osprey Cruise, at least two with fish. @ukoi.bsky.social
Please note that the morning trip will still be going ahead.
Unfortunately we have decided to cancel tomorrow afternoon's (Saturday 30th August 2pm-5pm) Osprey Cruise due to the wet weather. Apologies for any inconvenience this has caused. If you were booked on, you should have received an email from us about refunds and transfers.
