It is the Iceland Gull, Larus glaucoides.  It is a large gull which breeds in the Arctic regions of Canada and Greenland, but not Iceland, where it is only seen in the winter. It is migratory, wintering from in the North Atlantic as far south as the British Isles and northernmost states of the eastern USA, as well as in the interior of North America as far W as the western Great Lakes. It is much scarcer in Europe than the similar Glaucous Gull.

I don't think he was the one who nicked your ice-cream.   WWW

They look like buildings in a slate quarry, I would guess they are the worker's barracks from Monday to Saturday and I'm also guessing the location to be on the higher levels of the Dinorwic Quarry at Llanberis

Stab in the dark - reputed to be the oldest church in Wales, Llanrhychwyn Church ?

And I have now changed my mind to Caerhun church of St Mary, down the valley!

I'll let you off then Yorkie.      $wales

Thats the second time I've posted a photo here and the title was shown at the foot of the photo!
When I posted the Chateau Impney one the title was on my saved shots so I copied one and look what happened, it was only about half an inch square!   ))*
Yet when I posted my original of the Chateau later on it was ok. ???

If I make another $booboo$ is there any way I can go back in to the original posting and amend it?
