Ian MacLean has sent us an updated list of our Gulls that he has seen on the Axe Estuary Devon .

Great Black Backed Gull P:68C seen 25th February a regular visitor to Devon since ringing in June 2016. Sightings from The Otter Estuary, Dawlish Warren and now the Axe.

Herring Gull 476 seen 4th March, previous sighting August 2018 also on the Axe. This Gull was ringed locally in Seaton Devon

Great Black Backed Gull P:89A seen 26th March, ringed June 2014. Previous sightings on the Otter and at Dawlish Warren in July 2018.

Peter Rock and Nick Adams sighted our Herring Gull 631 at Lower Compton Landfill near Bristol on the 3rd May. This is the first sighting since ringing on the Break Waters in June 2016.

Where it has been like so many others we don't know, we rely on sightings from ring readers like those above, as we can't  like all ringers running similar projects be everywhere our selves.

All projects are very gratefull for the time ring readers put in  and for all sightings recieved.
