Glaucous-winged gull ,
I could not resist a trip up the A1 to see this wanderer from the Pacific coast of America / Asia. An adult, it showed in a ploughed field next to Cowpen Bewley tip in Cleveland.This is a dream bird for a gull enthusiast like myself and Chris D who made the trip with me. We arrived in the area at 10 am and was feasting our eyes on this beauty at 10.15. A 1st w glaucous gull and a 3rd w iceland gull also today.
