A twelve hour shift in the field with Roly ended on a high note with a Short Eared Owl giving excellent views hunting over a couple of fields in close proximity to our location!
The morning began at stupid o clock at Portland Bill with a handful of Red-throated Diver and twenty five Common Scoters passing during a three hour session.
A visit to Portland is not complete without checking in on the Little Owl at the Observatory Quarry!
The rest of the day was spent visiting a very windy Ferrybridge, Portland harbour and Lodmoor RSPB. A couple of Great Northern Diver was noted at Portland Castle. A couple of Black-tailed Godwits were the only birds of note at Lodmoor which still had very high water levels!
Celebratory Fish and Chips were had before we parted company with a plan to meet up for another adventure!
