A look after lunch today, light conditions were deteriorating as fine drizzle set-in, however Gull numbers were very good, so hopefully soon 'white-wingers' will appear.  News is that a 1000 Iceland Gulls have been seen in the Faroes, next stop the UK!

There was an adult Yellow-legged Gull and a blue/white CR Lesser Black-backed Gull nearby that I could not read.
