Moin, too sad, I haven't had time yesterday in to look after the (also haven't had the cam around as I had other duties), but loved to hear the begging calls of our young 's all over the city.
I really hope, next year I have more time to monitor the gulls.

Moin! After work walk - watching
Very clever birds 😉
Not sure though, if chips are appropriate food for their chicks, hope they found some fish too.

Last time on Outer Trial Bank, although there weren't any signs of HPAI in the colony there were some carcasses of gulls, and this is normal for large colonies. One of them had a ring (band), which I have the details back for.

The bird had been ringed as a chick at this colony way back in 2003 - almost 20 years to the day when we found it. This is a fairly normal lifespan for a herring gull! The oldest ever recorded in Europe was about 35 years old.

New study finds that most herring gulls are not as attracted to anthropogenic objects as anecdotal reports have suggested, and covering up obvious food rewards may thus help mitigate human–gull conflict over anthropogenic food sources

This gull is much improved since last September. It had very poor coordination.

Attempts to release it last year resulted in short lived flights. It's been overwintered in the Sussex CentrePark for gulls, (My greenhouse).

It is now improved, walks, eats, flies short hops and preens. Despite having avian UVB lamps it has moulted.

What can be done to help its feathers grow? When is a good time of year to release it?

This very enthusiastically joined the people shelling on the beach. But he failed to read the sign prohibiting the collection of live shells!

A young herring gull pecking shells on Bournemouth beach. They were dropping them from the air to try to crack them open. Such a pleasure to stand and observe them from such close quarters. Sea life is so good for mental health!
