The weekly walk around Murdieston Park was enlivened today by some predatory behaviour from a Great black backed Gull. The gull landed in the middle of the main reservoir and swallowed something, much to the consternation of the smaller gulls around it. Its crop was really swollen, and when it took to the air, it really struggled to gain height. I wonder if it had grabbed one of the Black headed Gulls, or maybe a big fish.
Also notable was a Grey Wagtail feeding in the channel running between the two reservoirs.
