Hello birders,
I'm enjoying the start of winter here in Canada and actually just got three 
lifers this weekend [Cackling goose, Northern Pygmy Owl and Thayers Gull] but I 
digress.
My parents, who are casual bird watchers, skyped me this evening to boast of a 
black-headed gull that they had seen recently in Victoria. I told them whatever 
gull with a black head it was would be newsworthy and so they sent me some 
photos taken.
It turns out it is a Franklins Gull - seen and photographed - in Paynesville on 
the Gippsland Lakes in Victoria on the 9th October. So sorry about the lateness 
of this notice but I have only just found out............ 
I can send a picture or two for verification.
Cheers now,
Ken Cross
