A rainy day's gull-watching

Being back in Surrey, and the weather being too horrible for walking around Canons Farm, I chose to spend the day grilling the gulls at Beddington. This proved productive, as I found an adult Glaucous Gull and two Caspian Gulls (an adult and a first-winter), although I missed the Iceland Gull which gave a brief fly-by. A Shelduck was on the main lake and two Egyptian Geese flew through.
