Message: <blockquote data-quote="Barred Wobbler" data-source="post: 1475691" data-attributes="member: 69394">I've watched a yellow-legged gull actively chasing a rock dove, a tail-chase which lasted for some time where the gull would catch up with the pigeon on the straights, only for the pigeon to turn off and gain ground on the curve as the gull was pecking at its feathers.The chase on that occasion ended when the pigeon dived into a crack in a cliff, but the gull clearly wasn't engaging in the practice for the first time. It knew what it was doing.</blockquote>
