A repeat of this time last year when I spent the majority of my time looking at the gulls in the Cuckmere. Today was no different with little else to get me motivated other than the large gull flock in the Lower Cuckmere. I had Jasper with me but he was very good and allowed me the time I needed to find a single adult Caspian Gull (different to the adult seen at the weekend and Monday) and a minimum of ten Yellow-legged Gulls that were spread from Exceat downwards.
The high tide was very exciting today as the water was passing over the riverbank, something that Jasper was not quite prepared for.

The small size and spread-wing shot
indicates this as a different bird from previous days.
