Chicks hatched at Rye Harbour Nature Reserve

The Black Headed Gull chicks are out!

Here's a short video of them:


Interestingly, they've only hatched in one of the lakes, I guess the birds nested there earlier. On the other side there's no chicks, and lots of Sandwich Terns:

Plus a few Oyster Catchers too:
