My Boy has been missing for 5 days!!! I know its hard for him..but we just want him home..If u see him PLEASE REPORT TO POLICE...

I wasn't allowed to test crisps with my gull chicks but this adult herring gull has learnt this is a easy meal. Not necessarily good for them at all, but they can't taste spicy foods as they lack the taste sense for capsaicin, which is 'heat' spicy sensation we get.

It's that time of year again. Have a go at picking out your own juvenile Yellow-legged Gull on our beaches with juvenile Herring Gulls... This YLG was at Broadsands Beach #Torbay yesterday evening - compare with the juvenile Herring Gull photos

I’m seeing a lot of anger and disappointment in badger circles today that the badger cull is ending, but not ending fast enough. Apologies for the long thread 🧵, but tet me explain why I think the news is the best it could be 1/25
