Hi all- recently found 16 dead adult black-billed gulls at a colony of
ca 70 pairs in Lees Valley, Upper Ashley River . Chicks starving. Dead
birds in colony with no apparent cause of death ( ie. no bullet holes or
4WD tracks). A concern . Have photographs of colony. Poisoning or an
avian disease are possibilities.
Regards
Peter Langlands
