Anti-seagull Olympic falcon gets an eyeful


It seems that Aeolus and the Olympic sailing team have a common enemy - seagulls.

Those flying pests have been doing their dumps all over our boat's nice clean decks and this sailor remembers all to well discovering green mess on his hands.

Our solution was nets and shiny CDs (including one of Des O'Connor ... shiver....) tied on to a line but the GB Olympic team has gone one further and employed a falcon.

Alas it seems the falcon has seen more than it should.....
