It is a perennial late-game conversation starter at Giants home games: “How do the gulls know to swarm to the ballpark during the ninth inning?”
But for team administrators, the flocks of trash-seeking birds are less an enigma than a serious nuisance that has been escalating since the waterfront ballpark opened in 2000.

It is NOT a new problem. Back when I was in grade school (late 1960's), the gulls would sit on the peak on one of the nearby building and swoop in on the playground for crumbs as soon as lunch recess was over.

The flying rats can tell what inning it is at Wrigley as well.

The deer at Ft. Bragg & Ft. Campbell knew to be off the ranges before 0500.
The rats @ the dumps were not so adept...
