Breaking News:
Glaucous Gull at Hope's Nose. Again!
Slightly less good than last year, as the big lump saw me pull my camera and promptly buggered off Southwards...
But I got a couple of shots as he went, and while he's markedly browner than last year's bird [and definitely a 1cy and so not the same] he's still [having caught paranoia about his browny tail and checked Olsen & Larsson carefully] in the Glonk range.
Observe;
Glonkus ginormicus
Yup, a biggun.
Sticking the bill out for us
I couldn't make out that bill on boc, so getting the nice 'bubblegum dipped in tar' pattern is a little relief, as while it looked lovely and biscuity when it popped up right in front of my astonished eyes [over the slick, 50' max.!!], looking at the hurriedly-shot-into-the-rain pics [taken as it cruised off] made it look a little Nelson-y...
Anyways, headed into the Bay at 0915, so probably in Brixham Harbour right now.
Go on, what are you waiting for??
;)
Merry Christmas everybody!
Be Seeing You...
