Lerwick Glaucous Gull

We have had a Glaucous gull in Lerwick harbour for around three weeks
In fact, one day there was two
We dont normally see these gulls until winter although they are recorded (perhaps 1 bird) most months normally in Unst

Its a big bird, the second largest gull in the UK after the GTBB


Been three times and was very approachable the first time.

The second and third visit it was seen on the roof of the fish factory


It's been quiet an attraction for those leaving Shetland as it has followed the ferry
