Last years bird

Prescot reservoirs,
A cracking ring-billed gull was on no4 reservoir this morning. I found this adult with only a handful of common gull about 10.10am. but it did not stay long and was gone by 10.20am. This adult has a bright golden coloured bill with a strong black band in comparison to the adult I found on here last October ( bottom picture) which had a dull greyish pink coloured bill.

Also today an adult med gull , peregrine and 12 goldeneye.
