Topsham Gull Roost

I awoke this morning to find the trees around my house still full with REDWING , FIELDFARE & MISTLE THRUSH .
Later in the day I went to look at the gull roost on the Exe Estuary off of the recreation ground in Topsham & saw numerous BLACK HEADED GULL . 40+ HERRING GULL . 20+ COMMON GULL , a single LESSER BLACK BACKED GULL & this adult winter MEDITERRANEAN GULL .
Later in the evening I had my first BARN OWL of the year fly across the road near Newton Abbot at around 10.30 pm .
