Birding from my window

Whilst pondering some problem or another at work today I sought inspiration out of the window, looking at the gulls on the River Trent. Most were the usual Black-heads, but one looked larger and whiter. Closer inspection with my desk bins (yes I have a pair, although they make me go cross-eyed), it proved to be a super adult Mediterranean Gull, almost fully hooded but still with some white behind its bill. It was soon disturbed by some rowers, and flew around over Trent Bridge for a few moments before disappearing upriver.
