2nd winter Caspian gull, Pennington Flash


The superb 2nd winter Caspian gull which I first found on 2nd December was back again today, and for once into the roost nice and early in the south east corner, allowing me to get a good look at it at relatively close range. It's a really smart bird and stands out a mile, I even managed to pick it out with my binoculars before confirming with the scope.

The yachts were on when I arrived this afternoon and an impressive 55 goldeneye were in two groups in Ramsdales and off the car park. Three willow tits were on feeders and in total I managed 50 species to kick off the new year.
