Wildlife on the roof.
- 6 June 2014 12:48267648Thought there was some activity up there, the debut was this morning.
- 6 June 2014 13:12267650I wonder if these chicks will prove as popular as the foxcubs did!Phil Wyborn - Brown at www.wybornphotography.co.uk
- 7 June 2014 05:18267677Phil, its when they start learning to fly, then its a problem, getting dive bombed by the parents, they took the skin off an old chaps head last year, he had a couple of things like stitches that pull the skin together put in, so quite a deep cut, he was scared to walk along the road after that

- 7 June 2014 08:17267679I had that problem a few years when one of the young ended up in my garden. Every time I went out I was attacked even though I was just putting some water out.
The same when I went out the front, it even attacked people at the bus stop!! - 7 June 2014 08:21267681I noticed yesterday that Pencester was full of poor deluded people who think they are being kind by feeding the airborne rats.I'm an optimist.

- 7 June 2014 09:02267686Sheila, re post 3, that was a light hearted comment based on the way the foxcubs seemed to split opinions. Some years ago my wife Jo was attacked by a gull while walking along Markland Rd and she recieved quite a bad head wound, they can be very bad news when chicks are around.Phil Wyborn - Brown at www.wybornphotography.co.uk
- 8 June 2014 01:21267718These birds are obstinate creatures, my neighbour used to feed them, and now I am pestered with them sitting on the wall outside my kitchen window, when they fly off I guarantee they'll crap all over my washing, as soon as I go to open my window they know something is coming at them, so they walk along wall to the end and wait, I blast them with the hose pipe but they soon return, I think they come back laughing at me, ha, ha missed me.
- 8 June 2014 09:10267724My former neighbours used to feed one, if they were late it used to bang on the cat flap.
The new owners did a lot of building work and there is no cat flap now but he/she still visits in hope. - 8 June 2014 10:49267728Aww those two look like trouble.
- 12 June 2014 11:16267950I love seagulls and they are part and parcel of living in a seaside town, the more the merrier.
However, just saw this short video clip today and it made me chuckle.

And move next door.
