The biggie
We left the Starlings and went round the bend and I screamed at Ann to stop, for I'd spotted movement in the sky ahead.

Of course they passed by Ann's side of the car so I had to jump out to get a view of them and managed a couple of pictures.

Due to the lack of a white tail, it's a youngster, which apparently is the norm for Smola anyway. A gull was seeing him off, guessing a Herring Gull, looks tiny, doesn't he LOL.

Believe it or not, this was our target bird for Smola and got him in the last hour! And my first picture of one for many years!
