 
                            A local bird charity has issued advice amid what it calls 'swooping season'.
The Manx Wild Bird Aid says it's receiving lots of calls about baby gulls falling off roofs - and its parents causing problems by 'swooping' at people going anywhere near their babies.
If a gull does fall off your roof - you're asked to put them back up, or on a lower surface - if safe to do so.
You're also advised to use an umbrella to shield yourself if the adults are swooping at your head.
It asks to be careful as if you move the baby onto the territory of another pair of gulls, they may attack or even kill it.
The charity says it is unable to raise baby gulls due to its lack of appropriate facilities.
