I took this video on 3rd March 2018: https://vimeo.com/262673072
I believe it's not Chroicocephalus ridibundus because they were around too and these were bigger and their flight was different (they didn't wave their wings as frequently). I have a problem recognising Larus canus from L. cachinnans. Given to the voice and flight I think this one should be L. canus. There was hundreds of them and it is on a place where both species may occur (but I believe it was just one of them because they were all the same size). The river is quite close to a dump where also L. argentatus, L. fuscus, L. michahellis, L. marinus and L. tridactyla were seen but I thought it's too late for them (they are there during December and January).
