Yellow-legged gull, Pennington Flash


A smart looking adult yellow-legged gull was in the roost this week. This is a species which seems to have become less common at the flash in recent years, but so far this autumn there have been at least three different adults so perhaps things are picking up a bit.



It's the best time of year to see whooper swans at the flash and these two dropped in briefly this morning before heading off east.

Also this week, two each of great white and little egrets have reappeared after going missing during the period of high water levels following heavy rain last Wednesday.
