Ditchford Gulls

After the fog had lifted, today was spent completing a WeBS count at Ditchford GP. Highlights among the gulls was a second year Iceland Gull, 4 Caspian Gulls (3 adults - one of which may have been the Pitsford bird, and a 3rd Year) and 3+ 1st year Yellow-legged Gulls. All birds were west of Ditchford Lane. Other birds present included an adult Whooper Swan on the main pit between Higham Ferrers and Irthlingborough, a Water Pipit, a juvenile male Peregrine, 4 Water Rails, 2 Green Sandpipers, 2 Redshanks, 7 Kingfishers and 7 Cetti's Warblers.(Neil McMahon)
