 Always a little extra buzz when a Gull reappears after a long absence from the data sheets. Great Black Backed Gull P:55A has made a return visit to Saint Vast La Hougue Manche France. Seen there on two occasions during 2013.

The latest sighting was by Olivier Plisson on the 20th February. The previous sighting was on the Devon Axe Estuary in November 2015.
