SEAGULL COPIES KEA.
ATTACKS UPON SHEEP. It is not often that the seagull develops the tendencies of the kea, but such.would appear to be the case on a farm adjacent to Levin. For some days a large grey and white gull has been a frequent visitor, and afterwards sheep have been, found wandering about minus their eyes. The owner killed some of the unfortunate animals, leaving one nnburied with poison applied to the sockets. Next day the gull was found not far away, a victim to its own greed.
