Bit of a loose end today and, after a late start, I decided to try and add the Ring-billed Gull to the yearlist. Started at the feeders but the windows were blocked by lenses so a quick look over the fence produced a Brambling and this less-than-desirable Brown Rat. Not keen on feeder shots but I do have a soft spot for Greenfinches.

At Ivy South a brief flight view of Walter and this Goosander was close in but straight into the sun along with a second bird. Nice light but nothing came close.

At Tern Hide very few geese but I did find the Pink-foot in an incoming group of Greylags and directed others to it; Andy Johnson had located the Rbg and helped everyone onto it but it was a bugger to find even with good directions and over 40 minutes or so it came and went in the throng of gulls. The flat backed appearance was very apparent when it was clear of other birds. I found a Med Gull and a couple of YLGs. A single Buzzard was on the spit feeding on a corpse presumably; tried to digiscope it but the camera exposure was all over the place; need to get a replacement battery for V1.
