Gulling time

Finally late summer is approaching. Since the 28th of June I've seen four Caspian Gulls and one 2cy Yellow-legged Gull here at Ottenby, Öland in Sweden. Today the first 1cy Baltic Gull showed up, I guess the first 1cy cachinnans isn't far away. Here follows some pix of three (of the four) cachinnans I've seen during the last weeks:
