Hi, It looks like two 2nd winter Iceland gulls together on North Scrape Frampton as I type. One is a little bit duskier on the primaries, Paul S should be able to comment/provide photos as he's gone in for the kill.... These two birds are not the apparant Kumlien's gull from a few days ago. Cheers, John |
