There has been a reasonable size gull flock in Wisman's Bridge for a few days but yesterday and today it was the biggest I have ever seen. Rough counts are
2000 Herring Gulls, 100 Great Black-backed Gulls, (more today than yesterday), 150 Black headed Gulls. Yesterday 2 'white-wingers were present in the flock. One a smart 1st winter *
Iceland Gull* and the other a very pale bird, either another more washed out Iceland Gull or a leucistic gull... I could not locate either today due to the flock being more spread out over to Amroth, it's very likely that they are still around.
