Iceland Gull Lowestoft

   I have spent the last couple of weeks visiting the most easterly part of our shores, Lowestoft to see the juvenile Iceland Gull which has graced us all with its presence, quite a dainty little gull, and eventually quite obliging, although nearly always into the sun, not helped by the security man at SLP in Hamilton Dock who would not let anyone passed "his bollards". just another half a dozen fence posts along and I would have had the sun over my left shoulder, but no, he is definately the winner of this years Jobsworth of the year award!







   Hamilton Dock also provided excellent views of a female Eider, Ness Point has been superb for some 9 Purple Sandpipers and of course the very tame Turnstones. Oh and the Pied Wagtails.
