Was thinking of trying for the forsters tern in Dorset/Hampshire? On Monday. It seems to be visiting the tern colony on brownsea around lunchtime.
Does anyone have any knowledge of the logistics of visiting the colony, presumably a ferry from Poole and paying for island access but how far are the terns from the boat, ia there a viewing point and how easy is year ticking red squirrel when you’re there. Anything else unusual to see there plant or insect wise.
I’m a little dubious about a south coast twitch on a warm bank holiday but presumably it’s just first come first served for the ferry and that carrying a scope around the island is doable (is it necessary for the terns?)
