Gulls at St Gothians

Well all seems to be very quiet with few blog updates, useless weather (except the last few days) and what seems like no change on the bird/wildlife residents. So not to be out done, I decided to get out and photograph some of the local/ long term residents, even gulls. Long periods of boredom and short periods of action were required to get the images. On the plus side I did get a long distance shot of a king fisher at Hayle although to small for use on here. Hope you enjoy them. As usual when it comes to identities I am a bit of an idiot, even with a guide. So if there are any mistakes just leave a comment and I will correct them. Don't forget for best viewing click on the images to see full size.

Hi Sam, Lisa,

Yep,

Had another look I now think it is a common sandpiper, I will ammend it once someone confirms this for me
