A Fantastic day at Llys-y-Fran

On our way to Llys-y-Fran I realised that I forgot the camera, so there are no pictures of today. The massive gull flock at Llys-y-Fran was the main attraction for our day birding. The day started with a near summer plumaged Great Crested Grebe in a small inlet on the reservoir. On the fields alongside the reservoir there was a flock of about 100+ Canada Geese. The gull flock continued to grow the whole time we were there. The first interesting gull was a smart juvenile Kumlien's Gull that flew in amongst a small gull flock. Further searching in the flock revealed 4 Mediterranean Gulls (1 adult winter, 2 2CY, 1 3CY). I met up with some other birders watching the gull flock. From here I saw: another Great Crested Grebe, an adult Yellow-legged Gull, another juvenile Kumlien's Gull, 2 Mediterranean Gull (1 adult winter, 1 2CY), and my main target, the adult winter Ring-billed Gull.
A perfect day birding!
