In order not to disturb the work, the ornithologists from Klaipeda University moved around safely and placed the cubs on a floating pontoon raft. According to ornithologists, taking nests from nature should not disturb the population of brown-headed gulls on the coast.

“Brown-headed gulls will be separated by seagulls according to their voice, since they choose their young in the colonies, so the transfer of hatchlings will not have a negative impact, they must be fed by their parents. The raft was moored next to the old nests, the birds will live here until they are feathered and fly. There are likely to be more juveniles, because some pairs of seagulls may try to lie down on a newly installed raft, “said Julius Morkūnas, a professor at Klaipėda University and an ornithologist at the Lithuanian Ornithological Society.
Ornithologists addressed a similar situation in the port a few years ago. At that time, a swan’s nest had to be moved from the Smelte Botanical Reserve.
