After seeing my first juvenile Yellow-legged Gulls from the back garden on the 6th and another one along the cliffs on the 7th this was the first time I’ve been out looking for Gulls with my camera and struck gold with the earliest Juvenile Caspian Gull I’ve ever seen in the UK at Walmer beach.
Wearing a Dutch ring ‘N:3’ I texted Mars and Thijs who replied with some details, ringed in the de Krupel colony.
A single juvenile Yellow-legged Gull, below, was also present alongside juv Lesser black backs, herring and Med gulls.
