    Yellow-legged gulls, Nottinghamshire, UK, Aug 2021

    Hi all, I'm organising some old photos. These are from 15th August 2021 at Langford Lowfields (Phase 3). There were three YLGs reported to be present at the time, and I think the first two photos probably show three YLGs, one great black-backed, and one lesser black-backed. The third photo...

    Hybrid diving duck? Montenegro, today

    Seen today (1st April 2023) on western Lake Skadar, Montenegro. May be totally wrong but my best guess is a hybrid common pochard x ferruginous duck. At first I just thought it was an odd pochard but the strongly-marked back and not-red eye made me wonder about a hybrid. I haven't seen any...

    Red-crested pochard? Mallorca, Spain

    Taken at S'Albufera Natural Park, 4th October 2022. I'm terrible with non-drake ducks, and wasn't paying much attention to them at the time. Just noticed this one when going through photos. There's a dunlin and I think a teal at the bottom, and probably a mallard in the top right. What's the...

    Mediterranean or spotted flycatchers, Mallorca, Spain

    All were in North East Mallorca, 4/5 October 2022. I only discovered the existence of the Mediterranean flycacther (i.e. that it had been split from spotted, by IOU) just after seeing birds 1 and 2, which were at La Gola nature reserve in Port de Pollença. 1. 2. 3. I think that all three...

    White gull, Whitburn Coastal Park, UK

    Hi, I saw this very white gull yesterday, 29th Aug, at Whitburn Coastal Park, North East England. I think it's most likely going to be a leucistic (or something) herring gull. It looks a similar size or maybe slightly smaller than the nearby herring (or possibly LBB for the juveniles?) gulls...

    Gull watching sites

    Hi all, does anyone know any good places to watch gulls during the day (i.e. not a roost) near(ish) to York? I've only recently developed a specific interest in them but no idea where to find any in any numbers! :) I was assuming that I'd just go to Rufforth tip, and then discovered that it...

    Redpoll - Kilnsea, UK - Oct 2019

    Hi all, do you think this is lesser or common/mealy? From Kilnsea, Spurn, 27th Oct 2019. At the time someone else said it was mealy and I thought it was too, and there are some reports of mealys on eBird on that day. Looking again I'm not sure though. I'm 95% sure that the photos are all the...
