Whilst I was at the Whisby Nature Reserve,
Lincoln, several bird-watchers (twitchers) and
photographers I met asked me if I had spotted the three or four
Mediterranean Gulls amongst the hundreds of Black-headed Gulls. Well I
couldn't be unsuccessful so these two photographs show I did spot three
of them; I couldn't find the fourth one. The Mediterranean Gull has
black head hood-marking whereas the Black-headed Gull has a smaller
brown head hood-marking – confusing. No prize but can you spot the
difference.

The articles I include in this personal Blog will include a varied range of subjects that interest me. They will predominantly relate to the United Kingdom (my homeland), Spain and Europe. Any opinions I express will probably not be too contentious, however they are mine and not that of any organisation or group of which I am a member.
