The calm after the storm revealed a few displaced
Little Gulls today, with 3 lingering at Chesil Cove and another through off the Bill. The damp, dreary conditions weren't the best for extensive fieldwork, but other sightings from the day included 4
Great Northern and a
Black-throated Diver in Portland Harbour and 2
Red-throated Divers through off the Bill.
Always a treat after winter storms, these Little Gulls were showing nicely at Chesil Cove...
