Birds really don’t deserve to die because of cruel bird deterrent measures like bird spikes. Help stop the killing of endangered birds such as the Herring Gull and other birds who simply want a place to land and thrive.
Help stop our endangered birds being hurt or killed. Please sign and share widely.
Fascinating Fact
The most numerous species of breeding gull in the UK is the Kittiwake which has more than a third of a million pairs. Their numbers unfortunately are declining not helped by the climate emergency. It appears their preferred prey, the sand eel is disappearing around the UK perhaps as they move north to cooler waters. Kittiwakes can be found breeding on roofs particularly flat roofs of industrial buildings.
