Ringed Osprey seen 10.35am in the Wareham Channel from boat trip with @kayakpoole.bsky.social & @paulathorpe20.bsky.social. Thought it might be 5H3 from the timing but underwing markings look different from photos of him by @markwright12002.bsky.social. @harbourbirds.bsky.social @ukoi.bsky.social

Distant view of White-tailed Eagle with fish flying across the Wareham Channel this morning, pursued by two Ospreys (maybe a fish stolen from one of them?). Seen from boat trip with @kayakpoole.bsky.social & @paulathorpe20.bsky.social. @harbourbirds.bsky.social

WTE G463 chasing an Osprey with fish in very murky weather over the Harbour. The Osprey dropped the fish which was caught in mid air by the one footed WTE! @harbourbirds.bsky.social @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social @dorsetwildlife.bsky.social
