Another puzzling gull......at least for me

Today I was hanging around the Carnoustie area waiting to help unload a van so these photos are all from within a few miles of there. The Lesser Black-backed Gull is late or staying, and the odd gull could just be an odd Herring Gull or is it? You'll notice my continuing love affair with Stonechats.......

A shaky clip taken on a heavy hand held DSLR of the Velvet Scoter from a previous post, click here,

The Island Pond at Monikie Country Park, photographed into a strong and low morning sun

A late or perhaps over-wintering Lesser Black-backed Gull at Monikie, also into the sun

One of the pairs of Mute Swans on the Buddon Course at Carnoustie Golf Links is still around

A strangely proportioned gull, standing tall, neck extended and a small head in relation to its body. These features could describe a juvenile Caspian Gull but a photo of its profile would help and someone wise to comment?

One of perhaps six Stonechats between West Haven and East Haven

Wren as above
