June 24th

This was a busy day with work of many kinds, and only one bird managed to get onto my memorycard. This was a Great Black-backed Gull (Svartbak) in its second calendar year. This is a rather rare bird to see up here, only my second Great Black-back this year, and it is even rarer to see such young birds. It was sat with about 12 Glaucous Gulls (Polarmåke). It was not pleased with me coming to take pictures of it, and flew over me, before it disappeared over the city.
