Larus! Don’t stand so close to me!

Due to Avian Influenza birds can’t be handled, not even baby birds that have fallen from their nests. Please follow RSPCA bird flu and baby bird advice to check which species can be handled and what to do. By and large the best advice is to not intervene.

A Dunbar based project without public funding. Made with flotsam and jetsam. If interested in the ecology of gulls, feel free to reach out and help improve local knowledge. Nota Bene: do not disturb gulls esp. during nesting or while bringing up their young. All gulls are protected by law. Gulls can be aggressive if the young are threatened. Don't take risks enumerating nest sites and chicks. Don't feed or play with gulls.
