Observation details
An unbelievable flyover record. I was packing the car outside my house to depart for a family celebration, when I heard a calling Mediterranean Gull coming in from the south. It passed over at a medium height - there was slight black in the primaries visible to the naked eye, so presumably a 2CY bird - it called constantly. I whipped out my phone and managed to record the final two flight calls before it disappeared away north. These are just about audible on the attached media. Without doubt, the best garden tick to date!
