It would seem from the number of sightings in the last week that the Autumn movement could be under way.
From Wayne Turner sightings from Perelle Beach, Guernsey in the Channel Islands we have received 4 sightings of our Great Black Backed Gulls.
GBBG P:38D seen 27th August and 3rd September, originally ringed in 2021.
Another very loyal Perelle regular GBBG P:43A now 11 years old, still the most prolific producer of sightings for our project.
GBBG P:63D seen 31st August at Perelle, originally ringed in 2019.
