A late evening visit to Little Marlow GP to if any migrants had dropped in was a bit of a failure.I was also hoping to see just how the Gulls numbers were building up prior to roosting and there were probably 1500-2000 present as the light faded. Mostly Black-headed Gulls but also small numbers of Herring and Lesser Black-backed Gulls. There were no Common Gulls that I could see. The only scarcer species was a adult Yellow-legged Gull.

Yellow-legged Gull - A different bird to that seen in July, with shading around the face.. |
|
Lesser Black-backed Gull - "White WO" again present.
It was ringed as a 4cy+ male at Maasvlakte (Yangtzehaven), Zuid-Hollad, NL on 12/05/2012 and has been seen at Little Marow many times, usually between July and October. |
