Yesterday there were 1/2 dozen Med Gulls, including 2 Juvs (2 queries - where do our July juveniles come from, & why do they look noticeably bigger than their older sisters?)
The adults included White 3HK4. It was ringed as an adult in Antwerp in May 2019, was in Devon in July then Faro Portugal in November before Newport.
It was still here this afternoon.
The older Shelduck brood of 4 are now flying, & still with both parents. The younger brood, still stable at 2, has been abandoned by the male parent.
A Greenshank & a Whimbrel around.
