  1. Lovely shot Trevor.
    You'll have to a series of gulls. I have terrible trouble identifying one from the other lol

  4. Another lovely photo, Trevor. It looks very cooling in this extremely warm weather :)

    I hope you and Angie are both well and that the heat is not too much for you.

  5. Hello Keith.

    I think that is a big problem with most birders...me included. The various plumages from juvenile to adult is a virtual minefield. Hats off to those who can do it...many years of observation I reckon.

  6. Thank you Bob.

    It is one I find I can now recognize in its adult plumage.

  7. Hi Petrus.

    It was taken this January during the cold snow spell we had in Cornwall. In fishing terms...I baited up and it fell to a seed mixture.
    Thanks for stopping by.

  8. Hi Jan.

    Yes ..we are both well...thank you. I trust you are also.
    The weather has got a little cooler now with the odd shower or two. My car is giving me trouble and I am searching for its replacement...that is why things have got quiet just lately
