Hello,
I'm George and I live on the north east coast of the UK .
I have a question.
I walk my dogs on the beach most days and came across something I haven't seen before.
A flock of gulls flew away as we approached and when I got to where they had been I noticed a few small round balls on the sand. These were about an inch and a half in diameter and when I broke one open it contained what looked like tightly packed, semi-digested seaweed. I did not have anything with me in which to collect some for further investigation.
I know that owls regurgitate "pellets", but can seagulls do the same thing?
