Pressure Gordon Brown for New Marine Laws

Please support our campaign for comprehensive legislation to protect our precious seabirds and other sea life. Pressures on our fragile marine environment are increasing - from pollution, exploitation and the damaging effects of poorly planned development - yet the laws protecting it remain woefully inadequate. http://campaignwithus.rspb.org.uk/eactivist/user/userJ.jsp?CLS@cINiWgBAWBgSV8Bj4L Saturday, July 21
Seagull Becomes Crisp Shoplifter

A seagull has turned shoplifter by wandering into a shop and helping itself to crisps. The bird walks into the RS McColl newsagents in Aberdeen when the door is open and makes off with spicy Doritos. The seagull, nicknamed Sam, has now become so popular that locals have started paying for his crisps. Shop assistant Sriaram Nagarajan said: "Everyone is amazed by the seagull. For some reason he only takes that one particular kind of crisps." The bird first swooped in Aberdeen's Castlegate earlier this month and made off with the 55p crisps, and is now a regular. Once outside, the crisps are ripped open and the seagull is joined by other birds. "He's becoming a bit of a celebrity. Seagulls are usually not that popular but Sam is a star because he's so funny." "Perhaps it tried some crisps in a shiny packet in the street, and was just opportunistic one day at the shop when it saw what was inside. "As everyone knows, gulls can be very quick and fearless, and clearly this one is no exception." see video at: http://news.bbc.co.uk/player/nol/newsid_6900000/newsid_6908300/6908311.stm?bw=bb&mp=wm&news=1&ms3=6 Wednesday, July 11
