Second ringed med gull seen in a week.. these birds are back from the Continent early..
3C78 is a Belgium ringed bird from 2002.. First seen in Bracelet Bay early 2003 by Harold Grenfell.. It arrives back in July each year since and overwinters with the growing flock.. It leaves Wales in March & summers in various places between Belgium & France

Nice one Al – FYI there have been record numbers at WWT the last couples of weeks with over 130 on one day
I was there last week and talked with Wendell.. It’s a shame they don’t ring gull chicks there.. Such an opportunity..
