Animal habits
At 4.30am on Tuesday, I saw
some rubbish bags being ripped
apart in Kemp Town, not by seagulls
but by two town foxes. I might
add that they both looked healthy.
There is a large group of foxes in
this area and they are regularly seen.
Seagulls are part of the coastal
scene and without our feathered
neighbours, life would not be the same.
They have been vilified for causing
rubbish problems. In fact, we
all could learn a lot from these
birds. They are loyal, pair for life
and they are excellent parents.
They also offer the best dustbin
service on the South Coast, picking
up all the scraps they can eat, that
we humans throw away on to the streets.
It's humans who have to clean
up their act, not our animal friends.
