Well hopefully things are back to normal for me and I've now managed a couple of visits. I spotted a juvenile Iceland Gull during both visits, but deciding whether they are the same bird or not isn't easy. I have a feeling that they might not be the same, but I can't see much difference in the video screen grabs. The first bird shows distinct spotting on its tertials, but they were not visible on the second bird. However, the second bird was distant, so they may just not have been visible.
I presume it or one of them is the same as the juvenile seen by David Scott and Rod Baker on 07/03/18.

A Russian ringed Herring Gull was a good sighting, only my second colour-ringed gull from Russia.
