WeirWood mid morning at the dam briefly. I noticed in amongst the gulls an adult Yellow-legged Gull, very smart individual. Slightly darker upper parts than Herring, long winged, bright yellow legs and big red spot on the bill reaching upper mandible. Also 14 Herring, 3 Leeser Black-backed and a Great Black-backed Gull. 3 Common Sands were noted and 2 Kingfishers. On the slope again a juv’ Green Woodpecker, 3 Stock Doves and 5 House Sparrows. I was only here for an enjoyable 20mins. Try again tomorrow hopefully.
