After seeing some images from Alan Dalton on his blog
A quick weekender was planned ..
Flew out on Saturday morning 9th and back the Sunday evening 10th.
Saturday afternoon was spent at Gamla Stan the old town of Skockholm at Skeppsbrokajen. A quay where Baltic Gulls and others had easy pickings from hand-outs ...
I had reservations beforehand as Me & the Public don't really go together, and there were 100's of people walking about doing there thing but making Me uncomfortable from doing my thing !! plus the light was harsh more excuses ...
Anyway i took 20 images before I packed up the camera and just watched ...
Baltic Gull ~ Larus fuscus fuscus
Sunday morning for about an hour was again at Skeppsbrokajen ..
Heading south of Stockholm and trying our luck at Trinntorp, Brevik and Vissvass before stumbling upon a beautiful location at Karrmarang, Galo Havsbad a lovely sandy bay, a colony of Baltics with 2 Caspian Terns and No people ..
With a GBBG for company
One of the three island colonies

I have never really got into Gulls, but this Baltic Gull is a real beauty. Very clean and fresh looking, your images do the bird justice, especially the flight shots. Top post indeed!
Simply a lovely gull...
