Fishers Mill in the artic wind

Having only ever seen one Glaucous Gull before, I headed to Fisher Mill where there has been a second winter bird reported.On arrival there was the usual large gulls loafing on the far shore which included 1 Yellow legged Gull.
On closer inspection there was a Buffy coloured bird with no dark primaries which was staying away from the other gulls.
After consulting with those far more knowledgable than myself, the gull in question was ID'd as avery pale Herring Gull, NOT the 2w Glaucous Gull.
From Fishers Mill I ventured up to North pit where there were 2 Greensandpipers and 7 Shelduck amongst the normal birds.
Two word's of warning for anyone venturing to these two locations,wear wellies!
