Pennington Flash gull roost


Adult Iceland gull in the roost again this evening. Almost as impressive as the the gulls, there is a jackdaw roost at the Flash with around 2000 birds.

While I was watching the adult Iceland gull I messaged a friend who was also at the roost but watching from the ruck and he replied that he had seen the bird. However, later in the evening he saw my video and got in touch to say that he had actually been watching a juvenile! He didn't see the adult and I didn't see the juvenile. Just shows how easy it is to miss birds in amongst the hundreds of herring gulls and with the light rapidly fading.
