During the IWC we go to Belgrade garbage dump to count gulls. We came to late, around 11:00 anyway I took the opportunity to catch gulls. We set up clap net very quickly and put bread to attract birds to catching area, but they were not very interested in bread, winter again is mild and it was some 15 degrees C, so we managed to cought only 20 BHGs but one was ringed in Czech Republic with metal ring as chick last year so I added colour ring.
We will definitely come back to Belgrade garbage dump, there was more than 15000 BHGs but not so many large gulls, most of them were Caspian gulls.

I would like to thank Dragan Simic for photos.
