Ive been watching two herring gulls raise three chicks right through this summer. The chicks are now a fair size but havent left the nest. As i was just watching them, three other gulls tried swooping down on the nest with one of the parents protecting the chicks for dear life. Ive never seen this before. Id hate for something to happen to them now. Surely they were just after food which had been dropped or something??
