Seems like we,re going to get Herring gulls through the summer this time.
Looking sad on the Twite but can,t understand why as nothings changed up there.
I can't recall Herring Gulls going through on this scale like they are this year. There must be a good reason ? Have the BOG lads noticed the same ?
Getting time to watch out for Y L Gulls as well soon !
Baffling with the Twite as well - I can't understand that either and trying to consider some reasons but no conclusions!!
Have,nt heard anything from the BOG lads on Herring gulls as yet. YLG next.
