Huge brutish birds. Still searching for the elusive caspo. Reported at Rhyl and 2 at Hoylake today. Bet you'll get one tomorrow Marc especially as I will struggle to get out! <br />Kev Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14002207723250713508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2412851395882523391.post-15367415650022544432013-02-09T19:34:46.165+00:002013-02-09T19:34:46.165+00:00First winter lesser bb gull at Llandulas this afte...First winter lesser bb gull at Llandulas this afternoon on jetty side - could be same bird?

Maybe it's time we had another informal workshop like last year's event with Martin Garner. Is anyone up for it?<br /><br />There've been relatively low numbers on the Lleyn these last few days and nothing unusual to report despite trying. Abersoch had a few hundred gulls yesterday including 14 adult Lesser Black-backed' - presumably migrants. <br /><br />Be good to connect with a local Caspian soon :-D Andrew Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10949593721059927189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2412851395882523391.post-56949306901283700532013-02-09T17:45:30.989+00:002013-02-09T17:45:30.989+00:001st winter Caspian Gull reported at the mouth of t...1st winter Caspian Gull reported at the mouth of the River Clwyd at 4pm too- just after I'd left!!
