White Wings

Looking at the photo of a recent Iceland Gull I noticed a re-occurring theme with Lizard white winged gulls, they always seem to be distant and often brief. I have been lucky to sometimes even get a record shot...

 Spot the Iceland, and some older pics

 Brief  Kumliens from 26/2/12

 Distant Glaucous 3/4/2011

 Spring Iceland from the 6th May 2007. As soon as you leave the lizard you need a wide angle to fit them in.  A few Icelands

and a few Glaucous

January

 Siberian Chiffchaffs are again in there usual winter sewage and wetland sites

 A few Lapland Buntings in the local stubble 

 A mobile Short-eared Owl on the Heath

Med Gulls have been become a very regular village gull over the past few years
