5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

The Conwy Residents' Action Party have enlisted the help of birds of prey to scare off seagulls that are a menace to the area. Kevin Bunn, a senior director of Lord of the Wings, received a call from a local resident who was annoyed with the seagull problem in the area. Kevin said: 鈥淪he asked me if there was anything I could do, so for 3 days a week I perch my birds in the gardens to scare the seagulls away.鈥 The gulls aren't harmed by the birds of prey, they are merely scared away from the area. When asked how to deal with an oncoming seagull, Bunn said: 鈥漈he first thing I can say to people is to turn and face them; they are bullies and don鈥檛 like to be faced up to.鈥 This clip was originally from 5 live Drive on Thursday 28 July 2016.
