for a variety of reasons my 110 hasn't been used for a full 7 days now, and living in a seaside town the herring-gulls are on building nests at the moment.
I went along to check on things yesterday and a pair of seagulls are on building their nest in the well of the bonnet-mounted spare wheel. They've bloody moved in!
darn things, I'll chase them off before they lay any eggs. Photo's to follow depending on their progress by this afternoon.

Nesting in the spare wheel on a 110 - just shows they've got good taste! Better than bloody pigeons! Rats of the sky they are. Apparently a lot of tramps down that London reckon pigeons have a '...good taste.'
Thanks for the CD by the way!
PRICELESS!!!! sent some pictures!

We call Seagulls "Shitehawks" round here!!!

On the other hand, leaving them there and driving off could be worse from an animal-rights perspective... :)
Well, I keep birds, got around 30 of them, and I recon U should just drive off, and see if the nest withstands the G force LOL
Does this mean that the Gulls have taken over from the customary Landrover Spider .... NOOOOOO
Can't see seagulls being protected...suppose what kind of gull it is. Have a look here...

These are herring gulls, their nests are often destroyed and eggs or young chicks destroyed, I hate to see people do that but it seems to be the way with many people here. Anyway they seem to have changed their minds as I checked last night and no more nest material has been added.
A couple of years ago a chap near me had a RR classic which didn't move for a month and had a full nest built on it, he picked the nest up and moved it to the top of a nearby wall and all was well.
