Will found a first-winter Glaucous Gull at Tanholt GP earlier in the day and with an Iceland Gull reported from Dogsthorpe Tip the day before I thought it was worth giving the roost a try at CEGB. There was no sign of an Iceland but the Glaucous was one of the last birds to arrive and there were also at least an adult and a first-winter Yellow-legged Gulls.
Another first-winter Glaucous roosted at Grafham Water this evening but the Tanholt bird is more likly to have roosted here.
Glaucous Gull Larus hyperboreus
