On Saturday and Sunday, there were at least 7 Med Gulls at Angle Harbour, including three adults, one 2nd summer, one 1st summer moulting into 2nd winter, one 1st winter, and one juv (pic above). Of these, two of the adults and the juv were clearly a family, with the two adults engaging in post breeding bonding display (pics above) during a spell of synchronised spinning on the water while calling to each other, before the female retuned to accompany the juv again.
