More BHG...

Hand catching Black-headed Gulls has been quite difficult recently, mainly due to the milder weather & birds not being brave enough to venture near our catching hands! Yesterday at Preston Docks with Ciaran & Craig it appeared, at first, that we would be in for another bad day. However around lunch time more gulls were on the scavenge for free titbits from passers-by and soon after a bit of patience began to pay off, when Ciaran managed to catch 5 birds.
