  • Lesser Black Back Gulls and the law
    You must follow the letter of the law when shooting. Shooting gulls can be a confusing subject for a lot of shooters because people aren’t aware of the law.
    The gulls shot on this particular day were lesser black-backed. These gulls can still be shot under the general licence if there is a valid reason to shoot them. I was covered under the general licence because the lesser black-backs were doing agricultural damage by eating the sheep feed.
    Another very important thing to remember is that there are numerous species of gulls in the UK but you can now only shoot the lesser black-backed. It is essential to ensure that your quarry identification is accurate as many gulls look similar. If in doubt, DON’T SHOOT. If you are unaware of the law and how it affects your shooting situation, visit www.basc.org.uk/shooting/general-licences/.
    It was clear to see large numbers of crows and gulls building up around the feeders. The worst affected area happened to be by the road and underneath a crisscross of telephone wires.
    I weighed the job up for the best plan of attack and ran through it with the farmer to check his views. The idea was for the shepherd to move the sheep feeder away from the wires and the road, taking it further down the field into a better location to set the ambush.
    This is where it pays to have a good working relationship with the farmers or landowners where you shoot. I do my best to help them so they will do their best to help me. This is also in their interest as it allows me increase the chances of a larger bag.
    With the sheep feeder down the field, I decided to set the hide up the night before shooting to make things easier with the early morning start.
    I set the hide up in the broken-up hedge. The sheep feeder was roughly 30 yards out into the field. The following morning I arrived, added a few bits of natural foliage to the hide and scattered a handful of full-bodied crow decoys around and on top of the sheep feeder. All that was left was to get the cameras rolling, jump into position and see what the day would bring.

    I have no idea why gulls are on the red endangered species list and protected they are a common and pest species as common as crows and pigeon if not more so I see more of them than any other bird probably because they eat all the other birds eggs there is a flock of a thousand on a small field near me and the ducks can't reproduce because they're all stood waiting for them to lay eggs

    Gulls in the city however is just a fucking disease and should be treated ONLY and EXCLUSIVELY with a rifle!!!
    The warmth it brings me to see these dirty savage noisy bastards plop out of the sky is beyond explanation. Utter gratitude and a pure sense of joy and happiness to see their lifeless bodies plummet to the ground I am really trying not to sound psycho but my god - I watch this video several times a day sometimes.
    My favourite kill is @ 2:12 but there are so many great ones I should just let people like myself enjoy this marvellous compilation!

    Have you got a licence to do this?! Killing seagulls is not allowed by law. (Seagulls are classed as migratory and therefore are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918. This makes it illegal to pursue, hunt, or kill seagulls, as well as being against the law to disturb, destroy or move any active seagull nest.)
