Exmouth Beach YLG

A very lovely and extremely approachable juvenile Yellow-legged Gull on the beach this morning. A very pleasant hour or so, spent scanning the beach and offshore, produced 21 Sanderling, 2 Dunlin, 7+ Mediterranean Gulls, 4 Common Scoter, 7 Common Terns, 1 Whimbrel and 7+ Sandwich Terns.
Yesterday - at least 30 Whimbrel off Mudbank.


Second-summer Mediterranean Gull.
