    Gull, Dorset. England

    Another Gull! I had this down as a Herring although slightly atypical, but when in flight the wing pattern didn't look right. Apologies for the pics the "on the water" shots are over-exposed and the flight shots were a bit distant!

    Never been into sea-watching so not good on Shearwaters, found these old pics of a pair of Shearwater off east coast of Majorca. Are they ID-able? Was thinking Yelkouan, although light upper wing panel off-putting. Thanks
