It was another very good morning at Chouet for recording returning colour ringed
Lesser Black-backed Gulls with
22 birds seen - of which two had
British colour rings.
White 1DH was ringed at
Stoke Orchard Landfill, Gloucestershire in March 2004 (Severn Estuary Gull Group), and it has been recorded regularly in winter at landfills in
NW France. It may very well be nesting in Guernsey because it has been seen in the island in four different summers.
Pale Green M:K also appeared briefly at Chouet today. This is one of Peter Rock's urban gulls - born in
Bristol and ringed as a chick in July 2002. I was lucky to see this gull, because it soon took to the air calling and flew directly out to sea heading north-west...next stop...England?!
