Sutton Bingham - Thu 3 Mar

Yes, I know, my blog has been rather quiet of late...so here's a whistle stop round-up of some local twitches that failed to merit a blog posting of their own:
24 Feb - managed to connect with the first-winter Ring Ouzel at Larkspur Crescent in Yeovil.
27 Feb - three Lesser Redpoll and fifteen Wigeon at Sutton Bingham.
28 Feb - Cracking views of the Pallas's Warbler at Portesham.
3 Mar - Found a Siberian Chiffchaff at Sherborne Sewage Works.
And we're up to date! So a quick visit to the reservoir on my way home tonight produced a pretty good number of gulls considering the time of year. Highlights being seven Mediterranean Gulls but ten Common Gulls were also amongst the six hundred or so Black-headed Gulls and Herring Gulls. Just half a dozen Lesser Black-backed Gulls were noted. It really is quiet at Sutton Bingham at the moment!
