Gull

After blipping yesterday we headed off to Formby Point to see if we could catch a glimpse of a red squirrel. Numbers had gone into decline there but have been making a steady if yet unspectacular increase.

The place was packed and we had to queue to get in to the car park. We had a lovely walk and picnic on the beach. Then as the crowds thinned we set off in search of squirrels. We caught a glimpse of one as he ran off into the cover of some trees. Then we were rewarded by the sight of three squirrels chasing each other on the forest floor before a pheasant scared them off. Not the best photos but at least we were able to record our sighting.

Today we went to more. I think that this may be a Mediterranean gull but I could be wrong.
