Another Mediterranean Gull delivers disappointment




A 2nd winter Mediterranean Gull at Cwmbran Boating Lake this lunchtime was a pleasing find but was tinged with disappointment as it didn't appear to be carrying that chunky colour band needed to set it off. Did show well down to less than 10 metres though. In compensation there's a Canada goose present with a metal ring but inconveniently took to water when I got within striking distance. Better luck next time.
