The wind had certainly picked up today, so it was a trip to Chesil Cove in the hope of finding something of interest. Perhaps Sabines Gull or a Grey Phalarope.
Sadly there were none, just a few gulls, a Rock Pipit and two Carrion Crows.
Birds Recorded:
8 Black-headed Gull
10 Herring Gull
7 Great Black-backed Gull
1 Rock Pipit
2 Carrion Crow
An adult Winter Black-headed Gull looks on as a juvenile Herring Gull comes into land.
Another adult Winter Black-headed Gull
This adult Herring Gull was really not happy about something.
And that was over a piece of bread a juvenile had landed on the beach with.
Here another juvenile joins in the squabble before............
........the original "owner" of the bread flew off with it again with a posse of gulls in tow.

The sea was certainly rough today...............
