Today's walk was around Barshaw Park where some nice Common Gulls were giving excellent, close views as they fed with Black-headed Gulls on flooded grass. In amongst them was a single Mediterranean Gull which gave me just enough time to pick out its key identification features before it was flushed by other walkers. Other good birds in the park included a singing Mistle Thrush (my third since the New Year) and a calling Great Spotted Woodpecker.
