    Yellow-Legged Gulls??

    Thanks Harry I only wish i had my bins, but it was the brightness of their heads that grabbed my attention, compared to the other Gulls...which they kept a little distance from. Ive a pic of a LBBG nearby aswell, but it shows exstensive brown streaking on the rear of the head and neck, and the...

    Yellow-Legged Gulls??

    Thanks MartinB (: The reason for my eagerness for an answer, is that these might be first records for this site, and im not confident enough with Gulls to forward the info without confirmation of my i.d. I guess im a little more confident now though:t:

    Yellow-Legged Gulls??

    Lack of any spotting to round heads, and a gentle facial expression. Blue-grey backs a little darker than the Present Herring gulls, but not as dark as the LBBG's also present. Small white spots to wing tips, and raised rear end. Also, the orange-red bill spot is quite large. And they were in...

    Yellow-Legged Gulls??

    Photographed at Edgbaston Pool today. Would i be right in presuming that these two gulls are Yellow-Legs?? Sorry for the pic quality, they were at a distance. Most of the Gulls here, quickly move off to the main Roost at Bartley Reservoir, some 3 miles away, and there have been 1-2 Yellow-legs...

    Comment by 'Guest' in media 'Me and me trusted tripod!'

    Yeah, she looks miserable.....but she was fine. Its what you dont see in the photo that makes her miserable, namely our nine year old lad!. It was a hot spring day, so plenty of cold beer was sank that evening.... I love Portland!

    Type of Hawk? London UK

    I have Buzzards overhead daily, and they dont cause the same reaction as that of a Sparrowhawk circling above. Other, smaller birds just seem to go into a panic!. So i think your Hawk is most likely a Sparrowhawk, possibly a female. If your bird was Buzzard sized, then there is the...

    Lesser Or Great Black-backed Gull

    Ive just had a magnified view of the photo on my PC, and im willing to concede that the Birds legs do seem to have a slight yellow tint to them, rather than greyish pink. In fact, they almost match the colour of the bill....to my eyes anyway. And it does look smaller headed than a GGBG. so in...
