was lucky enough to pick up a tagged red kite outside downpatrick on the way to ardglass. (a lot of flash fill needed to bring the bird up)

Ross's gull Rhodostethia rosea

Ross's gull Rhodostethia rosea

Ross's gull is a monotypic genus though probably close to little gull - first i've seen in ireland, blown into ardglass by stormy north seas...you can just see a pink flush on its breast and hint of a collar on its neck.
