Great to see the first Wheatear of course, but that Iceland Gull... 😍<br /><br />However, I must take you to task: '...a leucistic bird...a bird to ignore.'??!! What were you thinking?

Pretty gripped by the ongoing duckporn (need Shoveler for Skye) but I've seen Iceland Gulls from the windows here, so I'm substantially less gripped by that.
