Yesterday there were 14 Med Gulls on the river, including this 1st-winter...
...and today's grim weather, with its change to a chill, easterly airflow, had me thinking the river would be rammed with gullish joy. No such thing. Even though there were 11 Meds late afternoon, overall numbers were much lower than recently, and I had to resort to checking out Beer beach for white-wingers. Steve obviously had the same idea...
I had a new (to me anyway) colour-ringed Med yesterday - White 38T1. It was present again today. Did I mention I had another just recently? I think I may have, but haven't checked and can't remember, so I'll mention it anyway - White 3R55. I had a report back on this one - it doesn't exist. Specsavers is calling...
Badly in need of excitement. Mind you, I've just watched 3 episodes of Wallander over the last few days, so should be grateful that I still have the will to live. I am rather drawn to bleak viewing, and Wallander sits quite comfortably in that category.
On a totally (and I mean totally) different note, try this...
No!
ReplyDeleteI didn't mean 'at home'!
DeleteThat video is epic. I'm feeling royally stoked. I believe that it the parlance.
ReplyDeleteHi Gav, If you hadn't already suspected, those bikes are custom built for tricks. Indeed, I watched a program where one of these experts tried the same stunt on a conventional machine. A huge error!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! My bike groans at the thought of going down a kerb, let alone throwing it a couple of meters onto the back wheel.
ReplyDeleteGlad you all liked it. Type 'Danny MacAskill Industrial Revolutions' into your favourite search engine for more jaw-dropping antics.
ReplyDeleteGavin, 3P55 does exist...
ReplyDeleteThanks Pim, that may well have been it!
DeleteDid you know, that video has been viewed over 17,000,000 times?
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised Ric, it's pretty exceptional.
