Does anyone know? I really need to know!
I was in the city at 1am this morning (until about 3am) and there were seagulls still up partying.
When and where do they sleep, if they ever do? I've never seen a sleeping seagull.
Seagulls seem to 'nest' at night only when they are actually nesting to raise young. The rest of the time (the greater part of the year) they sleep out in the open where they feel safest - inland this could be parkland, even car parks, apparently, and of course out at sea where they just 'sit' on the water in large flocks. Your nocturnal 'partying' gulls were probably just opportunists, feeding off the kebab scraps dropped by their human fellow-partygoers... when the human nightlife subsided, probably so did they! Here in South Devon, UK, at sunset we observe flocks of gulls coming from all around, gathering above this one particular valley and then, altogether, heading off out to sea, presumably to sleep on the water. Apparently birds don't 'sleep' in the normal sense; they nap, maybe even keeping one part of their brain active and alert to watch for predators while the other part rests. I've observed this in our own pet parrot! So the answer is 'Yes - they do sleep but not always when or where we would expect more familiar birds to roost.'
