In the second last pic, is that another bird in the background?

V Bull

Your correct with the 3rd Gull. A pretty little fellow

I think the 1st and 2nd birds are both Common Gulls in winter plumage.

2nd winter common gull.
The Kittiwake is an adult Common gull already in summer plumage. Kittiwake have jet black legs which are really short.

The last bird is a 1st winter Black headed gull.

Thanks Bsal & Traonach for your help yet again....:)
