    This is yesterdays 'mystery' bird Beryl isn't it?

    The one which appears to have been 'dumped'.

    The huge bird bigger than a 'gull'.

    I'm not confused any more.

    Pete.

    It is bigger than the all gulls. It's the worlds largest gull. That is Why I was confused. I don't normally see them away from the Estuary.
