Title: Re: what bird is this Post by: Debbie on December 11, 2009, 08:30:01 AM I can't see the tip of this one's tail, but my guess would be Black-headed Gull - winter plumage.
Title: Re: what bird is this Post by: SimonH on December 11, 2009, 03:14:33 PM Your on the right track Debbie - the tail is grey
Title: Re: what bird is this Post by: coleggwent(phil) on December 11, 2009, 05:03:42 PM id say a common gull there are so many of them ???
Title: Re: what bird is this Post by: SimonH on December 11, 2009, 09:05:31 PM Wrong Answer Sorry Phil, Debs was close tho. They are in Britain, quite rare around the Newport coastline, but go to Porthcawl or even better down the Mumbles and a lot more can be seen (some guy counted 42 recently)
Title: Re: what bird is this Post by: coleggwent(phil) on December 11, 2009, 10:58:50 PM a lesser black backed gull ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???
