28/03/21	Caspian Gull	Standlake	1	M Cunningham
14:40	1w probably male. Large individual v LBB so this and relatively heavy bill suggests Male. Though greater covs rather mealy especially inners hinting at poss herring influence But everything else in structure, moult and plumage good for Caspian. And TM and IL agree so that'll do me .
