Must get the local patch website stuff sorted out. A really jammy 'patch find' this morning with good birders who got up at the proper time checking everywhere but the old Fisher's roof on which was a juv Iceland Gull - presumably a small female. Its behaviour also suggested that it has been around for a day or so as it quickly located the waterfall. Hopefully it did not clear off at lunchtime when it flew off up the harbour and out of view. Pics later.
