Melbourne
The
Pacific Gull
has a curious habit of dropping
turban shell
s and other
molluscs
, especially
limpet
s and
mussel
s, from a height onto a rock in order to break them open. On some islands and headlands, this has resulted in the formation of 'middens' of
shell
fragments that could be mistaken for ancient natural beach deposits. (extract from
