I took a couple of hours away from the office to twitch a Glaucous Gull that was chilling on the dyke fourty minutes up the road. It was an extremely easy twitch, with the bird sat as soon as we arrived and not moving too much until a dog flushed it and the bird moved onto a nearby lake. I had been waiting a long time to see a white-winger this well, so it would have been rude not to visit. There were not too many other birds there, but some nice Barnacle Geese made up an excellent supporting cast.
