That funny herring gull

Sams leucistic herring gull may well be from Caldey where one has been breeding for at least ten years and this is the first potential sighting of a stunning bird.  a couple of years ago we ringed a chick which was clearly an offspring of this bird ( photo on the Teifi RG. Blog by Chris Jones) but the Newport bird looks like an adult.  It could well be the Caldey one.
