Left home around 7am with Michelle and Sam for a week in Cornwall. Slow drive due to traffic. Stopped off at Hayle to look for a Ring-billed Gull. Didn’t see, but think I was looking on wrong section of Hayle. Did find three Mediterranean Gulls (two adults and a 2nd winter).
Dropped Michelle and Sam off at our house for the week (great place, amazing views!) in Mousehole before continuing to Porthgwarra. Very quiet, though did have brief views of a Firecrest (only ‘Crest actually seen).
