Caspian Gull at Earlswood Lakes


Lovely to visit Earlswood Lakes has been awhile since I have been there, we got there nice an early and met up with Dave's friends Adam heard so much about him so nice to finally met him :)
When we got where Adam had already seen the Caspian and Red Breasted Merganser fly over shame we hadn't of got there sooner.
Adam said the Caspian had flown off, Dave had brought some bread with him just to clarify it was Malted bread not white bread, don't worry Adam Archer I have the address for Specsavers ;) lol

Dave fed all the bread for the Caspian Gull too the other Gulls ;) no sign of the Caspian so we walked round from Engine Pool to Terry's to find the Caspian Gull soon located him sitting there so nice too see a Caspian Gull in Warwickshire, but does look different to the one I saw before eye didn't look beady and small, but has been ringed in Germany as a Caspian so a beginner like me can't dispute that, I will leave that to Dave ;) lol
We walked back to the car to get Dave's Camera but as we got back with it the Caspian had already flown off think passed are heads, it came back after awhile certainly gave us the run around, got some photos on Terry's then we located it again on Windmill pool, which was nice because it was on it's own on the water got some more photo's.
Was defiantly worth getting up early for not only did I get to see the Caspian Gull I also got to see Dave more muddy than I was which really makes a change lmao love you babe ;)
