Park Dam was busier with 2 pr Goosander and some good gull activity. I have to admit I had difficulty sorting out c9 1/2CY birds, especially one rather 'over brown' Herring type. I managed to get it down to 3 Adult Herring for certain and probably 3 younger. There wasn't a single adult LBBG but appeared to be 5/6 younger.
