Lytham St Anne's

On Saturday my Dad and I travelled up north to Lytham St Anne's for the adult Ross's Gull that had been seen there the day before. This bird is another one that has eluded us for a few years so was hoping to connect with it and by early morning there was no sign so we decided to head to Marshside RSPB where we saw plenty of avocets, Blackwits and the usual stuff and then after an hour or so we decided to head back to Fairhaven Lake in hope that it would turn up and as we arrived bleep bleep Ross's Gull so we quickly drove a mile down th road to see it sat on the beach sheltering from the wind, we waited another hour or so and had stunning views of this adult gull down to 30ft and some good photo's was taken. We left at around half 4 arriving home shortly after half 8.
