A very quick check 0810-0820 saw the Bonaparte's Gull in a small cluster of gulls on the mudflats just south of Heysham 2 outfall
At 0930 it was on the pager as being on Red Nab along with the ad Little Gull and at least 10 Meds
At 1000 I returned and it was too late for Red Nab with all but a few Meds left amongst dwindling BHG numbers, including the one we darvic-ringed this spring = 2P96
A CES ringing session at Middleton provided a sprinkling of warblers including Sedge, Reed, Willow, Chiffchaff, Whitethroat and Lesser Whitethroat, with Stock Dove also seen.

This must be a new bird, Colin. The only Little Gull I have seen is a/the (returning?) moulting adult. Thanks for this
