I'm not sure if the seagull is still alive, but yes A KLM Fokker 70 diverting in from Bristol hit it and it survived.
Naturally such a large bird injured and probably pretty livid needed more than one person to retrieve it.
We had to hold off an inbound and delay a departure for approximately 10 minutes in total to retrieve the injured bird.
Last I knew it was with the groundsman.
