Iceland Gulls -- Teifi

Two Iceland Gulls by the River Teifi on the Reserve this afternoon watched from Curlew Hide.
A 2nd calendar year bird and a more unusual much cleaner 3rd calendar year bird with a grey mantle and more advanced bill tip pattern.
Maybe a Teifi record -- 4 Great Crested Grebes just beyond the surf, and the 1st Manx Shearwaters of the year passing with the occasional Gannet too.
