Great Black Back Gull P:82C was one of the first Pulli ringed this year on the Break Waters of Portland Harbour, ringed on the 12th June.

It was still on the Break Water a week later, fledging date unknown. Where it has been between in the intervening time and the 7th August when Tim Farr sighted it at Sutton Bingham Reservoir has to remain a mystery. Sutton Bingham is to the south of Yoevil in Somerset

GBBGull's are rarely seen in land, although occasionally one turns up in unexpected places.

Tim can be found on Twitter where he posts his Bird sightings.
