Join the team on evening charters around the harbour, taking in the full beauty of the harbour during golden hour as we go in search of the BIG SIX and plenty of our other great summer birds. Discover Poole Harbour's nationally important breeding bird populations and familiarise yourself with those fresh juveniles plumages as this year's young fledge and take to the wing.

Sunset is a great time to be out birding, as during the warm summer months, the cooler evenings are often a hive of activity. This is when many birds gather to roost or have a late evening feed, with our resident Ospreys often favouring a sunset fish catch! Meanwhile, White-tailed Eagles from the Isle of Wight Reintroduction Project have become regular harbour go-ers, making Poole Harbour one of the go-to destinations to see White-tailed Eagles in England! They are often active along with Marsh Harriers and other birds of prey in the early evening.

The BIG SIX - Osprey, White-tailed Eagle, Marsh Harrier, Peregrine, Hobby and Goshawk.
