At The Patch this morning still 3 Little Gulls, but only 1 juvenile Mediterranean Gull. A definite increase in the number of Common Terns present including the first juveniles.

A trip to Denes Wood with DW and GH for Purple Emperors was successful in that we saw a minimum of 3 individuals, but all spent their time flying high in the canopy so was not brilliant for photography. Maybe next year!
