More gulls different place


Going about my business in Newport this evening noted another colony of breeding gulls on the roof tops of an industrial estate opposite the Transporter Bridge. Pulled in outside the Ship and Pilot pub complete with a crew of drunken seamen singing sea shanties and a number of youths with aggressive looking dogs to take some pics. This colony, just like others I know of in north Gwent, appear to like asbestos corrugated roofed buildings with protruding bolts on which to anchor their nests.
