The lone Cattle Egret still at Boulderwall this afternoon
1,000s of Gulls came into roost on Burrowes this afternoon unfortunately not until after 15.30 by which time viewing them was difficult in the Dull conditions. I did manage to find a single 1w Caspian Gull and 2 more Yellow-legged Gulls but must surely have missed a few more in the darkness. Before the Gulls came in a huge Saker or possibly hybrid flew across Burrowes and headed off towards Galloways.
