Lot's of Gulls,
Mick found a Yellow-legged Gull, 1st winter, (to brief and to many Gulls for me to get on) !

We could see a distant DW in his car, spending a lot of time studying the roost
from the road just inside the barrier !
He had just called somebody back to join him, in the rain ? ?  ? ? ) AA
This caught Mick's attention ?

Curiosity made us join DW who had found a Caspian Gull 3rd winter and an ''unidentified Gull''.

Later identified by MS as Audouin's Gull, 2nd winter.

Audouin's Gull, 2nd winter with Caspian Gull, 3rd winter.
