1st summer Little Gull photobombing the Great Northern Diver on Burrowes
There were 5+ Little Gulls on Burrowes today with the long staying GND, when the drizzle arrived it dropped a few Swallows and Sand martins there. A wander around the hayfields was hard work for little reward in todays strong wind. Hopefully things will improve as the month progresses
