Hello all, I thought that Bob Mumfords post regarding ship assisted gulls was rather informative. Certainly any birder that has spent that much time at sea has a level of authority that should not be discounted. My question is what evidece is there that birds such as gulls are being ship assisted? Certainly since it is mentioned so often (although not here), there must be some reason to think it happens.
