Today's Caspian Gull near Sizewell has to be one of the best looking (most "traditional" looking) cachinnans I've seen in a long while, a sensational looking big male. Here he is throwing some shapes (unimpressed pseudo (?) heinei, dark mantled Common Gull looking on).

Took a break from writing on the upcoming 2017 @LondonBirdClub report and cycled over to Regent's Park to have a look at the presumed 1CY Caspian Gull on the lake - it's a beaut but is it the full ticket!?! Answers on a postcard... 😴 #londonbirds #cachinnans
