Had the gull workshop today. 11 people took part, we looked at species identification, ageing and variation within the regular gulls at the farmlands and Martin found a first-winter Caspian Gull which was a lifer for a few of the group.

We had Herring Gull, Lesser Black-backed Gull, Great Black-backed Gull, Common Gull, Black-headed Gull and Caspian Gull.
