Waxwings, Snow Buntings & Med Gulls

On Saturday 16th November, in the morning a look at the North quay retail park revealed 6 Waxwings (where had the other one gone?) in the silver birch tree and they once came down to the feed from the Berry tree. It was getting a bit busy in the car park, with cars streaming in, my sign to leave so I did. During to Links road car park, I heard 3 Snow Bunting and saw them flying over north, Chris M was gesticulating at me and he pointed to a Snow Bunting perched on the seawall just 50 metres south of the car park, as I walked down the other 3 joined it and all 4 Snow Buntings perched on the wall and then flew down at regular intervals to feed between the cracks in the concrete, being flushed every minute or so b=y walkers, dogs and even cyclists, which combined with dogs on the beach had them all fly north along the beach. We had been joined by Rob H and at the car park, Rob said there was a Med Gull, whilst I watched one adult winter mediterreanean Gull fly south. There was indeed an adult winter Mediterranean Gull in the car park sporting a partial black hood, it was joined by 2 further adults, the regular one- legged bird and a ringed bird too, so 3 Adult Mediterranean Gulls in all.
