    Fujifilm FinePix S8200 plus Samsung J5 mobile phone camera. Chinon Compact 9-21 x 25 RB binoculars and 10x - 30x60 Zoom binoculars

    Default 3 BHGs

    Three Black Headed Gulls sat on the wall near me at Keyhaven the other day.

    There was Mr Noisy, a loud-squawking bird to the right of me, and Miss Prim, a vain-looking creature - having just finished polishing her toe nails and dipping her beak into some lipstick (Goth-type, of course - dig the eye shadow too!)

    Then there was young Mr Angry, who didn't like Redshanks near him - so always chased them away!

    Like it or not, those rather irritating and very common Gulls DO have lots of character!
