A Flock of Seagulls

[River Chatter]

Nope, not the crappy eighties band.  At this time of year for a few weeks I've noticed huge flocks of seagulls heading north in the early evenings.  Anyone know if this is a migration, or are they just heading to a roosting site?

They will be heading from the local landfill site to their roost for the night.

Aye, Aberdeen if full of gulls.  :lol:

Not sure about landfill unless they've been feeding at the same place for well over thirty years! I guess it's possible.  don't know were they begin or end the flight (obviously), but they pass over the western side of East Kilbride, over Cambuslang, then Mount Vernon way and then continue north.

Perhaps  they are heading for Loch Ba.  :lol:

There is probably a chip shop in Easterhouse that opens early to cater for the schoolkids

They're no seagulls, they're camouflaged special forces cormorants heading back to the Clyde estuary after a stockie bashing sortie :wink:  .

Sounds like 3 land fill sites to me :worms

There are two possibles. Drumclog, between Strathaven and Darvel, or Rigmuir on the East side of Torrance house.

The only plausible explanation  so far is Alex's chipper in Easterhouse   :lol:
