 Another connection to the Channel Islands and our Gulls came from Alderney, Paul Veron passed on a sighting by the Alderney Bird Obs Warden John Horton.

Herring Gull 546 seen at Crabby Bay Alderney on the 17th May, first sighting since ringing in June 2015.  

Just short of a 7 year's for the first sighting, never mind as with all sightings it is very welcome.
