Today's Highlights

At Hedgerley Tip where I found an excellent selection of rare gulls last week, Steve Rodwell, Chris Hazell and others connected with both the juvenile GLAUCOUS and 2nd-winter ICELAND there today, as well as 3 different CASPIAN GULLS.

Dave Parmenter had a female LESSER SPOTTED WOODPECKER in Hillmott's Farm Wood, Hedgerley, and both Ted & Mike Wallen saw the 2 SHORT-EARED OWLS at Gallows Bridge and 4 Yellow-legged Gulls and a CASPIAN GULL on Calvert Sailing Lake.

A probable DUSKY WARBLER was also seen again by the pools at Hedgerley Landfill, but this area is strictly private and dangerous to access
