MED GULL AT MARLOW
A near full breeding-plumaged adult MEDITERRANEAN GULL was at Little Marlow Gravel Pits this afternoon. It arrived at 16:55 E of the spit and bathed and then tried to lose itself in the throng of gulls on the spit. It had a slightly uneven head moult, a couple of white flecks near the eye on the left and slightly more on the right. There was an abundance of Common Gulls, predominantly adults (Adam Bassett)
