Franklin’s Gull at Paynesville, Victoria

I know lots of birders are interested in this gull. The bird was seen well from around 9:20am to 10:30am or so in “the usual spot” (the gravel car park in front of the hardware store). It flew up and down the channel a few times before finally landing on a piece of concrete on the waterfront. It remained until finally seen off by a Silver Gull.

A note for those unfamiliar with Paynesville – there is a small tackle shop in the main drag with a sign that days “Hardware”. This is NOT the hardware store with the car park out front. You need to travel along Wellington St and turn right over a small bridge to get to the boat ramp and gravel carpark.

I’ll post some pictures somewhere when I get a chance to load them.
