Wednesday 25th January

Pretty much the same birds as usual tonight: the 2 RUFF and a DUNLIN were about though there was no sign of the redshank (they were probably along the river shoreline). A decent flock of golden plover which were initially flying very high up but gradually worked their way lower until they were performing aerial acrobats á lá starlings before coming in to roost. The gull roost was once again a relatively modest affair with one probably YELLOW-LEGGED GULL though in the throng I couldn't see very much of it.

I thought that I would share this 2nd winter yellow-legged gull videograb that I took the previous day.
