There was an impressive number of birds in Anglers CP Gull Roost this afternoon. Most came in from the direction of Hampole Tip.  The notables were difficult to pick out because they were facing head on to the hide. The usual adult Yellow-legged Gull flew in at 15.40hrs.  The adult Iceland Gull was in at 16.05hrs and the juvenile Iceland Gull was in at 16.25hrs.
NB: Pugneys roost had 2 Yellow-legged Gulls.
