  1. Hello

    Seagulls are not very strong flyers, they can fly up to 10 to 15 miles, any further and that means they are going to die, they fly out to sea to die,

  2. There is evidence in the UK of seabirds visiting rubbish tips and dumps in the middle of the country and returning to the coast to roost, which would be more than 100 miles round trip in a day. Sooty shearwaters migrate nearly 40,000 miles (64,000 kilometers) a year, flying from New Zealand to the North Pacific Ocean every summer in search of food, according to a new study. This is an average over a whole year of more than 100 miles per day.

    Only the Arctic tern, which migrates between the Arctic and Antarctica, rivals the sooty shearwater in distance traveled in a single migration. An arctic tern ringed (in US terms, banded) in the Farne Islands traveled an average of 150 miles whilst on migration to South Africa.

    Radio tracking shows that White fronted Geese, on their migration between Greenland and Scotland,  take 1-2 days to fly 1000 miles from the Solway in Scotland to south west Iceland, and then another couple of days to fly a further 1000 miles from Iceland to west Greenland where they nest, or around 500 miles in a day. There is no reason to belive that a seabird cannot match this.
