Falcons and hawks patrol Prima Deshecha to deter seagulls
Orange County Landfills runs an experiment using a falcon named Falstaff and a Harris hawk named Boris to harass seagulls at Prima Deshecha Landfill. Master falconer Adam Chavez from San Juan Capistrano trains the birds to target various birds over the waste site. Hundreds of seagulls from nearby beaches circle the area, but rarely land, as the birds maintain a holding pattern since late January.
