Gulls Gone Wild!

bukaymedia.com/ GULLS GO CRAZY FOR HERRING EGGS! Each year tens of thousands of gulls come together to compete for the eggs in the San Francisco Bay. Competition is fierce as they comically fight each other for the roe. Being very buoyant, some crazed gulls sky dive head-first into the water to win the battle for food.
Harbor seals and sea lions came to eat the herring; then the gulls and diving ducks came to feast on the carpets of eggs that covered the kelp, eelgrass, pier pilings, and rocks along the shore. This documentary covers about 10 days of the event.
