Yellow-legged Gull

This juvenile Yellow-legged Gull was at Passage House as the tide was falling late morning. Whilst the bill appears on the small side it showed most of the other typical features.

The dark greater coverts and plain tertials stood out

Nice white rump and contrasting black tail band


Elsewhere, waders at Flow Point included a Turnstone, five Whimbrels and three each of Dunlin, Ringed Plover and Common Sandpiper. Despite the disturbance from the country show a Wheatear and a Stonechat were on the racecourse.
