Twenty four hours ago I was watching Caspian terns in Portugal in temperatures around 19'C, now I'm watching a Caspian gull at Pennington Flash in snow with the temperature more like -2'C. Painful though it is though, this is too good an opportunity to miss since it's a first for the flash. Notice that it has a yellow ring on its left leg which may suggest German origin, but unfortunately it could not be read. Found by John Tymon on a day which produced an unusual number of large gulls at the flash, by recent standards.
