Herring Gull Orange 2493. Adult bird seen at Middlemarsh Farm on 180318

Your bird was ringed by us at the Seamer Landfill, Scarborough (now closed), in 2011 but hasn’t been seen since so I’m very pleased to see it’s still around. It was ringed as an adult, caught during a cannon-netting session. Full history as follows:

Many thanks for the photo confirmation; I’ve added the record to our database.
