A dull day but the white birds brightened it up. It seems likely
that the White Gull is the same one as seen last November. The bill
may be wrong for Glaucous, but good for 1st winter Iceland. The
eye is pale which would have to mean 2nd winter, not 1st winter
Iceland. However the bird is probably just too white for either
of these species and albino Herring/Lesser Black Back seems the
most likely in fact. Some of the Grebes are full on displaying now. |

There seem to be unusually high numbers of tits right now. They are obviously attracted to the feeders, but it is great that so many have survived the cold weather. |

The reservoir is still very frozen despite the roads thawing out now. It was also foggy today so I couldn't see the gulls on the ice if there were any. This is the best number of Reed Buntings for 5 years. January 13th 2010
