Marloes Peninsula

Blew the cobwebs away on the Deer park for a short while this afternoon. Saw pair of Raven flying between the mainland and Middleholm. There were a few Gannets and Shag in Jack Sound. There were five Fulmar on the usual ledges and a couple on the wing. A number of Herring and Lesser Black back gulls flying along the cliff line. As I left two chough flew up the valley from Martins Haven.

Fulmar 
I then went to the mere, along with the usual suspects, there were 6 Gadwall, 5 Pintail and 3 Tufted ducks. The unexpected highlight was case of spot the odd one out amongst the Black Headed gulls when one turned out to be a Mediterranean gull!
Spot the odd one out!
