Wintersett + Gull Roosts 09.02.16

4 degrees,  cold but sunny with a south westerly breeze.
Anglers CP: Oystercatcher 1,  Little Grebe 4, Snipe 6 and Goosander 31.
Both roosts were watched today.
ACP roost  per Jonathan Holliday: Just one notable - Psycho the adult Yellow-legged Gull at 16.20hrs.  Herring Gull circa 550 and Great Black-backed Gull 60.
WRes Roost per Pete Smith:  Lots of big gulls came in late again and formed a tight pack, making it difficult to pick up notables.  However, an adult Mediterranean Gull was in at 16.45hrs and  2 x 1st W Caspian Gulls - one at 17.00hrs and the other at 17.05hrs.   The leucistic Black-headed Gull was in at 17.05 hrs.
