Definitely worth keeping an eye on them as a Med Gull could quite easily turn up with them one day. I've never seen Kingfisher there so I'm just a little envious..as you saw two!Jason Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370640317306824066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657877595796583471.post-42768994963425642512011-12-18T06:46:34.657-08:002011-12-18T06:46:34.657-08:00I made a quick visit to Brake Lane early Thursday ...I made a quick visit to Brake Lane early Thursday afternoon to feed the massive flock of Black-headed Gulls and in comparism relatively few Mallards!
