I was watching large numbers of Black Legged Kittiwake passing through Yakumo today and I suspect there were some interesting things among them.
I have some ideas about this/these bird(s) but want to get some more knowledgeable people's opinions first.
These 4 pics are all of the same individual. Crappy 100% crops, sorry.
Any ideas/opinions gratefully received..............
My first thought here was Saunders Gull (I'd seen one earlier in the year at the same spot) but the bill appears rather short.
