Odin has arrived:
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

Oh Odin!! He flew off and returned for nooky. I'm not sure but I think EJ was cross about it, someone, and I assume it was she, was cheeping! Odin was turfed off and disappeared.
A noise suggests he might be on cam post??
Odin has brought a whole new impetus to the word 'rampant' this season!!

Odin touched base and flew off again. No alarm. Perhaps he has gone fishing!
