We had a good 2'' maybe 3'' of snow last night, this morning. The morning began with heavy snow but it gave way to lovely sunny weather and a thaw.
After a walk around Scarborough Mere where the light was low and bright and difficult we ended up at Holbeck Hill, yes near where the famous hotel went into the sea in the early 90's , to see the Mediterranean Gulls.
It was around half two, high tide was just after four, I put some bread on a nearby bench (would they have seen it in the snow) anyway ten minutes later after I put the rest of the bread in the snow the Black Headed Gulls arrived with the regular wintering Meds.
I love these beautiful acrobatic gulls, they are very aggressive when it comes to being the victor for bread. I hope you like the shots in the snowy conditions.

These are really brilliant Mike and a great find as well.
Hi Mike,
Well these are fantastic shots... I guess the background with the snow gives a plus to the pictures, and they are all wonderful. I guess you are really happy about these results!
Thanks Roy we are blessed that the Meds are here in the same place every year late autumn to spring.
Thanks Chris I think the snow makes these pictures diferent.
