    Our first impression was "is that a ring-billed gull? haven't there been hybrids about? maybe it looks dark". Very educational bird what ever it is.

    Hello, from Rugby, England

    Hi dnic and welcome!! I would Highly recommend Barr and Stroud Series 4 8x42 Binoculars. I got mine off amazon for £105, but they usually retail for around £150. Very impressed with the optical quality for the price!! I am from Rugby, where abouts do you like to go birding? Matt
