Local Mega: RING-BILLED GULL at Spade Oak
I found an adult RING-BILLED GULL on the main lake at Little Marlow GP, Bucks
this afternoon. Although only seen on the lake, it was seen to fly over to the
river side flood meadows at least twice – I last saw it about 2pm. The Little
Marlow flood meadows are extensively flooded but receding and hold a lot of BHG
and some Commons, but the river is flooded in many areas, including Cock Marsh,
Berks, so it could get on there. I would also suggest that QMR roost might be
worth a look (Adam Bassett)
