    Lots of Black-headed Gulls on the rafts now, great to watch their noisy antics for a while.

    Good shot!

    Is the raft for nesting - and only for BHGs?

    It's primarily for the Gulls Catherine, I guess very little else would want to be on there with them.

    Not once they had started I guess!

    I know they had small rafts on the ponds near Festival place at Basingstoke last year, and I think it was Coots (or Moorhens?) which used them.
