I have had a lot of emails from people asking for help in rescuing baby Gulls. I’m always happy to find a good wildlife centre and help these dear creatures. Mostly, its best to leave them to the parents care, but if that isn’t possible then they need to be looked after. Stephen contacted me from Bournemouth and here is his note and photograph of the happily rescued chick!
“A very lucky little bird plucked from the nest by a passing jay and dropped into my backyard across the road. The furious parents dive bombed everyone in sight but it wasn’t until three days later that the chick emerged from hiding. Fed and watered, it soon perked up, and is now on its way to a local wildlife rescue centre after being checked by the local vet.” Stephen, Bournemouth Words + photo
