Gulls Ventnor
Presumably a LBB chick with its adult parent close by - but previous observations have seen an adult herring gull pair in the vicinity, just to confuse things (also there were two chicks last week/only one seen today).
At least six 'herring' chicks seen at three locations, one nest at Leeson Road and two nests along Albert Street (rooftops).
