15:00 White cloud 15 o C. Wind S 16mph. Humidity 64%. Pressure 1004 mB. Visibility good. High tide today 12:38, 9.17m
A blustery afternoon down on the Bullnose, temperature still mild.
The blackheaded gulls are now beginning to show summer plumage. In winter they lose the black head (which is actually a dark chocolate brown) and show only a dark smudge behind the eye.
