  6. lib 07.30am at 2.30pm 16 / 22 from consett 200 miles timed 12.19.18 around 1215 yps slower than thought
  7. well if they get a fresh drink n a bit food they stand a fighting chance but often they are flown out and sit somewhere they cant be caught and basically die,they often drink water that has chemicals in it which doesnt help, or if they are lucky we can catch them and have them sent ashore by boat, heicopter pilots are not keen to transport them nowadays for various reasons!!! i wish more of our governing bodies would contact the various helicopter companies and offshore companies ie: shell, bp, exo mobil, to see if anything can be done to help the birds
