Eye-balling gulls at Colwyn Bay

Seven species of Gulls showing well this afternoon very close to the prom at Colwyn Bay. Med Gull, Common Gulls, Kittiwake, HG, GBBG, LBBG and BHGs. Several Sandwich Terns too.  Offshore off Llanddulas - 10,000+ Common Scoter offshore; an amazing sight. One male Velvet was picked up in flight. A Peregrine was hunting offshore too while a Whimbrel flew over calling. 
Got a friendly HG that walks around our house too- only when the wife is not at home of course ;)
