Yellow-legged Gulls at Kępa Nadbrzeska

Every year some Yellow-legged Gulls (Larus michahellis) are observed as breeding birds here. In some years also single Lesser Black-backed Gulls have bred in this colony, even up to three pairs.
In 2021 Marcin equipped both Caspians and Yellow-legged Gulls with GPS-GSM devices. You can see both parents and view the map with after-breeding movements of this Yellow-legged Gull pair below (click images).s
