I recently came across some pictures of a very interesting looking gull on the Punkbirder website , taken at Cotham Landfill at the start of the month - see here (scroll down to 3rd January 2013 if necessary). A large, pale gull with an all-black bill and concolorous wings and body; not a Glauc. Is it a Glaucous-winged..? Certainly not a bird that I've seen on my recent few visits, but definitely worth keeping an eye out for!
Rather frustratingly, the author of the post, Alex Lees, had emailed my notbirding email on the day of his sighting, but I only checked my email today - 3 weeks late. Perhaps I should check it more often...
