Hi Dave, what part of the docks was the Ice on?

The North Wall side, but the bird is mobile.

The Homebase bird was actually a second second winter 3cy bird Phil as the Darnell's bird was there all the time and both were on the Docks this afternoon, also had a third bird, a first-winter 2cy, at Pywipe early afternoon and a single adult Med plus 2 Kittiwakes a first-winter and adult ----
