My first self-found Caspian Gull today, in the Cuckmere Valley north of Exceat Bridge on the large meander.
This second winter bird was larger than the nearby Herring Gulls. It held its neck high, though not in this photo. The gently sloping forehead, clean white head with the long straight beak are indicative features.
A lovely Little Egret on the meanders south of the bridge.
Great Spotted Woodpecker, Arlington Reservoir.
A delightful Song Thrush in the back garden, lightening up a Saturday that had been dominated by rain and the norovirus.
