Poor thing has a broken wing and is walking round looking petrified.

Will animal shelters do anything ?

Put it out of its misery even, can't see it lasting long tbh, tho despite the broken wing looks perfectly ok.

hmm,not sure about fishing net - he could well injure himself further struggling. I had to rescue one stuck down a light well and rspca advised throwing a sheet over it, espec. head end so it couldn't see. this calmed it down enough to grab and bung in box to release elsewhere. It didn't try to bite me if that helps!

Good point regarding net, I have an old blanket I could use, that bloody beak looks sharp tho.

Or I could try lining the net with blanket

The lady at the end of our street feeds some stray cats. There is always a few bowls of food on the top of her garden wall which gulls like to eat too One day I was walking the DC to school to see a teeny grey kitten squaring up to a seagull that was 3 times it's size. Seagull looked quite disconcerted and flew off.
