Now, most of you will recall that I don't do gulls....but as Bill advised me ages ago, "get some pictures and go from there". So I did, today at the local reservoir. There were dozens of them there, but the ones below were the only ones close enough to have their picture taken. Now, I think I'm looking at immature GBB gulls....am I right? If I am, I shall take note and continue my quest, if not.....I may well throw in the towel on immature gulls!:h?:
After about 15 minutes of watching these, the Mallard gang/Canadas etc, the object in the other picture arrived and that was the end of any more birding for the afternoon, as he spent the next 15 minutes (at least..... I gave up after that) doing rolls, loops and speedy low fly pasts. :-C If anyone can identify the type of aircraft involved, my OH would be interested. We thought that when the Harriers went from Yeovilton the other year that we might be immune to this low flying...obviously not.
