Armenian Gulls in Armenia !


You really couldn't make this up but we drove past layby after layby full of these gulls feeding, some being fed chum from the back of the fishing boats,  and we could all have had good close up views and got some cracking photos but oh no, our guide wanted to walk to the gull roost where the gulls were either miles away, where the land was boggy and unwalkable or they simply flushed. There has got to be logic here somewhere in these birdwatching skills our guide had, but they are yet to dawn on me. We did ask our driver to stop but that fell on deaf ears as usual so all we ended up with were these two crap photos. A gull fanatic would have had a wobbler !
