FISH! Can't see who's brought it:
No takers:
It's now being eaten.

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Our bird flew off. A moment later Monty came down, took the fish and flew off in the direction of the spare nesting platform.
People on chat are trying to fathom out what the green object is, on the nest. Many suggestions, Vick nasal inhaler, a spent gun cartridge, a lighter. etc.

Glesni delivers a fish
EDIT. A small headless piece.
Glesni looks as if she has had a good feed, herself.©
Fish piece was soon finished and two chicks are demanding fish from Glesni
Glesni still remains on the nest.
In answer to the green object on the nest.
11:31 - Paul Wlw : It is definitely a (fired) 20g shotgun cartridge. © MWT
It seems that it is probably from clay shooting which takes place not too far away.
( Sorry that should have been posted over an hour ago ! I have been on the phone )
Monty delivered a fish at 12.40 approx. Brenig has the fish after tugging at Monty's foot.
