The Mediterranean gull (Larus melanocephalus) is a small gull. This gull breeds almost entirely in the Western Palearctic, mainly in the south east, especially around the Black Sea, and in central Turkey. There are colonies elsewhere in southern Europe, and this species has undergone a dramatic range expansion in recent decades.
The Mediterranean Gull is slightly larger and bulkier than the Black-headed Gull with a heavier bill and longer, darker legs. The breeding plumage adult is a distinctive white gull, with a very pale grey mantle and wings with white primary feathers without black tips. The black hood extends down the nape and shows distinct white eye crescents. The blunt tipped, parallel sided, dark red bill has a black subterminal band. The non breeding adult is similar but the hood is reduced to an extensive dusky "bandit" mask through the eye. This bird takes two years to reach maturity. First year birds have a black terminal tail band and more black areas in the upperwings, but have pale underwings. (wikipedia)
A recent colonist, the Mediterranean Gull arrived in Ireland in 1995 and first bred in the Republic in 1996 in Co. Wexford. Prefers low lying islands near the coast on which to breed. Only two or three pairs breed but this is likely to increase with more and more birds seen in suitable habitat in the breeding season. Regularly breeds, at Ladies Island Lake in Co. Wexford, along with other nesting seabirds, including Black-headed Gulls, with which it is often associated. In winter, Ireland attracts birds from northwest France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland and the Baltic States, occurring from September to April.
Dublin Bay is a good place to see them in winter.

I've always meant to seek out and shoot this Erratic boulder on top of Twisleton Scar, but time and conditions have tended to be against me. I set to put that right this weekend with a shoot late yesterday and again this morning. Thankfully for a brief while the conditions were with me on both occasions.

Interesting and intelligent behaviour displayed by this Herring Gull. It repeatedly flew up in the air with a shell, releasing it on to the rocky shore in order crack the shell and eat the contents.
From dusk until late, Bourke Street’s Royal Mail House will be re-animated by the dazzling, kinetic light installation – maxims of behaviour – by artist, Alexander Knox.
The reproduction and associated behaviour of Odonata is unique among the animal world.
The male grasps the female head or thorax and curves his abdomen to clasp her prothorax or head with his anal appendages to form the tandem pair.
Damselflies have a pair of inferior appendages and a pair superior appendages, i.e.., totally four appendages. Those specialized appendages are used to clasp the female for copulation. In damselflies the male clasp the prothorax of the female. Those appendages, like lock and key, will only fit into the same species female.
After forming a tandem and the sperm in the male secondary genitalia is ready, male damselfly invites copulation by wing flapping and flexing the abdomen. The female responds with bending up her abdomen to the genitalia of the male and form the wheel position.
But interestingly, here the male is a Copera species and the female is Pseudagrion indicum!
They desperately departed after several failed attempts to form a wheel. :(

Governments around the world are drawing on behavioural insights to improve public policy outcomes: from automatic enrolment for pensions, to better tax compliance, to increasing the supply of organ donation.
But those very same policy makers are also subject to biases that can distort decision making. The Behavioural Insights Team has been studying those biases and what can be done to counter them, in collaboration with Jill Rutter and Julian McCrae of the Institute for Government.
The report was launched with remarks from Alex Chisholm, Permanent Secretary at the Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy.
Dr Michael Hallsworth, Director of the Behavioural Insights Team in North America presented the key findings.
The findings, their relevance to policy making today, and what they mean for the way governments make decisions were discussed by:
Polly Mackenzie, Director of Policy for the Deputy Prime Minister, 2010–15 and now Director of Demos
Dr Tony Curzon Price, Economic Advisor to the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
The event was chaired by Jill Rutter, Programme Director at the Institute for Government.
