2014/2/16

I was really thinking weather to go or not and in the end we did go. It was +17C so I wasn't really optimistic. Gulls first landed around 9 and I couldn't get a clear window and they flew away 20 minutes later.. I thought it was over! And then around 11 30 they landed again and after dozen of landing and flying in the air I finally made a catch.



Caspian from GoPro screenshot..





It wasn't so bad.. around 60 birds and more than half big ones:) It started to be more exciting when I discovered adult argentatus between them:) and it had Finnish ring:) Fuck yeah! 





And here are few interesting birds:)
