With apologies to Omar Khayyam. As I'm working in Exeter at the moment, I've spent my lunchtimes down at the quay, looking through the flock of Black-headed Gulls for foreign-ringed birds. Not a bad return either: in the last week, I've managed to read the full numbers of one from Latvia, two from Sweden and one from Denmark, as well as a partial reading of one from the UK. Some more pics below...
Get you, missus... Danish birds, eh?
Missing a picture with the first number; this is the winter-plumaged Swedish bird. The other one's in full-on 'hot stuff' colours.
