Saturday 15th December a.m.
On the edge of Cullingworth there are fields where you get a build up of gulls during Winter so I decided to check them out on my way home.The sky was still cloudy and the temperature was 0°C as I pulled up to the first field where there were around 250 Gulls.With these were c50
Lapwings and c50
Starlings.I moved to the next field where there were c500 Gulls mainly
Black-headed but good numbers of
Common and
Herring with less
LBB Gulls.Also in this field were
Jackdaws and
Rooks.The large numbers made quite a spectacle and even more so when they occasionally lifted blocking out the sky.
