Kiltonga Nature Reserve

Today I visited Kiltonga duck pond and saw a gadwall, 4 House Martins, Greylag geese, Mallards, coots, Robins, lots of Gulls and 2 Kingfishers! Here are some photos of the Coot, Robin, Gadwall and gulls.

Ringed Gull sighting

 The previous post had pictures of a Black-Headed Gull with a leg ring with 2AJC on it. I have had a reply from the black-headed gull study NI with details on the bird. It was ringed at Castle Espie on 19/6/14. You can see more details at http://www.bhgullsni.blogspot.co.uk/ .
