Kittiwake Trapped in anti-bird netting

Under the Tyne Bridge

Sadly whilst checking on the Kittiwakes today we found ‘a trapped Kittiwake’ that had been fatally injured in anti-bird netting under the Tyne Bridge. A Kittiwake continues to nest to the right, hopefully the dead bird was not its partner. Sad times.
