So I came across these pics of dead, decomposed seagulls exposing their healthy diet of plastic. It reminded me of the time that I flicked a cigarette butt at the beach and a bird swooped down and ate it. (Thanks to Guy below I found out that these photos were taken by Chris Jordan)

This is an outrage! How horrible a death of these heavenly creatures. These pictures spell our doom.

Actually cigarette filters are not made of plastic. They are made of cellulose, which does take quite some time to decompose, but not nearly as much as plastic.
Oh I know. The correlation that I was trying to make was in the fact that these birds will eat just about anything.
excellent, thanks much.
i think that these birds will adapt over time and learn not to eat plastic. it will be fine
TREASURE!!
