Glaucous Gulls showed very well indeed, its just a shame it was nearly dark and sleeting. The fw
Iceland Gull was abit more reticent, keeping a comfortable distance. Thirdly the wintering fw
Lesser Black Backed Gull was almost trod on and followed me around like Bunty asking for chips!
A worthy dinner time me thinks....

Iceland Gull flyby, scoping chips. |

The Iceland Gull is very pale with a face like a black headed gull, very different to the big Glaucous Gulls above. |

The young Lesser Black Back, looked a bit sickly... |

Please direct the gulls to outside Rick Stein's fish and chip shop in Padstow for a top quality feed.
