01 May 2015 Green Woodpecker

3 June 2015. after 2 failed attempts at nesting, these Black headed gulls were making a third attempt as can be seen with this gull bringing nesting material to the islands. The reason for the failure was the very high spring tides, low pressure and strong winds causing flooding on the lagoon islands.
