SENDING HEALING HUGS TO POPPY. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND PEOPLE OF TODAY HARMING AN INNOCENT CREATURE A young herring-gull will need specialist care for years after cruel yobs attacked it with spray paint. The bird was taken in by Whitby Wildlife Sanctuary, North Yorkshire, after she was found covered in thick red paint. The baby gull, who rescuers have named Poppy due to her new colour, is only a few months old and now faces a couple of flightless years while waiting for the damaged feathers to fall out. Alexandra Farmer, 25, who runs the sanctuary, said Poppy will not be able to live among the other gulls because she will be the victim of bullying. She said: She will be staying here at the sanctuary for a couple of years. She wont be able to fly now because the paint has made the feathers rock hard and stiff. She keeps looking at her feet because they are so red but there is not way to wash it off.
