Prescot Reservoirs,
The run of rare gulls continued with this 1st winter caspian gull at the reservoirs today . It showed briefly around midday and after some checking of the photos at home I was able to confirm it as a 1st w caspian gull. Several yellow legged gulls also today with 2 adults , a 2nd winter and a 1st winter was a good total among the couple of thousand herrings throughout the morning.
A female goosander, 3 goldeneye, 3 pochard, 5 teal and 10 tufted duck on the still partially frozen reservoir.
