Extended lunch break as Sandra desperately wanted to see the Thayer’s Gull. No sign amongst the 280+ Herring Gulls on the island when we arrived at 12:00, but at 12:30 just as the rain started I found it perched on top of the island. Lord Nelson was also there but no sign of any American Herring Gull lookalikes. Scoters much closer today, but no time to check them. Weather looking very good for the weekend – let’s hope it sticks.

Didn’t know you were interested in the paranormal Barry? What on earth is Lord Nelson? Have Swansea Council been spending on a statue in tribute to the fallen hero?
Nelson’s Gull (Glaucous x Herring). Wouldn’t it be great if a Bonaparte’s turned up there too!
Ah! Lets hope we get some decent weather so more can appreciate.
