Newport estuary

Only things if note this morning were a flock of 50 curlew in a high tide roost, one of which was colour ringed:  Left - green above yellow 83; right - orange (all above tarsus).

And two med gulls: juvenile, and an adult with a white darvic on left - ?LX9; wind, mud, other  birds, and the bird insisting on sitting down  as soon as it stood still, ment I couldn't get the first digit for sure - most likely 0, O, 3 or B.
