Herring Gull Y:G73 history:--
Y:G73 was ringed on 30th June 2017 at Harewood Whin Landfill site, York. The gulls feed on the Landfill
site during the day and roost on the floods in Lower Derwent Valley National
Nature Reserve or on the Humber Estuary. The gull has also been seen at Scarborough on 1st August 2017.
