Just had a yg / juv Gannet over the airfield, came in from the North, departed to the South, then went SW towards Tattershall! Had good views from 100yds - could'nt believe what I was seeing, initally dimissed it coming in as a Cormorant until I saw it properly close up! No-one will believe an inland Gannet surely. |
