Great stuff Andy, you did well to get a photo. Not the easiest of twitchers in blizzard conditions. Good shout.

Nice one Andy.
Takes some patience separating them from Black Headed Gulls when in winter(ish) plumage.
I see Med Gulls, on the Isle of Wight, in the sumner - a lot easier, then, to distinguish.
