Injured Lesser Black-backed Gull

This injured juvenile Lesser Black-backed Gull was brought to my attention by Jim Milne (Building Services Manager), it was in the guttering between the Concourse and Hall 4. I went up on the roof and brought it down. It had injured it's left wing but otherwise seemed in good health, it ate some food and had a drink while in the temporary cage.
I finished work at 8pm and then took the bird to Hessilhead Wildlife Rescue Trust near Beith, a quick exhamination revealed it may only have a dislocated wing so hopefully the bird will make a full recovery. I will put an update on the site when I get the information from Hessilhead.
