GBBGull P:62A has returned to the Devon Axe Estuary seen on the 26th July by Mike Hill. Since ringing as a Pulli in June 2014 the first sighting was in the same year from Cornwall since then the majority of sightings have come from the Axe with the occasional sighting from Chard in Somerset to the North.

GBBGull P:43A was sighted back at Perellle Beach Guernsey on the 26th July by Wayne Turner taking a break from helping to raise its off spring on a nearby Island.

Photo Wayne Turner, this Pulli is canstantly under the watchfull eye of P:43A & its mate. Because of this close proximity Wayne is sure it is their Pulli, unfortunately it didn't get a Darvic coded ring.
