Gann and Marloes Mere

Gann: C300 LBB with a handful of GBB inc one of the youngsters ringed on Skokholm W:051 (more info). The 'yellow-legged' gull was again in the pools and talking to Dave the feeling is it's likely to be a hybrid and might also have a link to Skokholm (a whole raft of info from earlier blogs here). Otherwise 2 Dunlin and a Common Sandpiper. Marloes Mere: Green Sandpiper from Oriole Hide and likely same bird from Barb-wire gate. Also female Sparrowhawk, Snipe and c 300 LBB gulls at Trehill, perhaps the same group as I saw earlier at the Gann.
