Large gulls
A good move of larger gulls yesterday saw at lest 250 Herring gulls and 18 GBBGulls ssw.14 Linnets in the field and a Grey Heron looking for an easy meal in he fishpond down the road.
None over Soil Hill yesterday afternoon - well there might have been high up but it was thick fog up there. A great count. Any sign of the Twite, Andy?

Good stuff on the gulls, had a few Herrings over Shelf Moor same day.
That's an amazing count, I'd be pushed to see that many at some coastal sites.
It was an amazing move ,the GBBGulls came through first with a few herrings and then a steady move of herring gulls for the next hour..
