She flees before any wingercising starts!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
She is back, though watching her chicks warily.

Hi Clare
Glesni flew in fast and furious from the high perch as intruder, camera tried to search for it , but too quick
Really thought one of the juveniles had fledged when I saw this
but Dyfi chat says that one is being hidden by these two beauties
Look I'm here!!
Really had me fooled though! It was Brenig who was hiding. Jumped up and started flapping with short leaps into the air.

Here are some helicoptering attempts for those who missed them, including landing skew-whiff and landing on a sibling:
Lots of blurs, which restricts choice of snaps.
Camperson couldn't keep up:
Couldn't keep balance on landing:
Landed on sibling:
