In my youth I spent alot of time sailing up and down the east coast and gulf with trips to the carribian. About 20 years ago.
One thing that was consistant in nearly all ports of call were the effing poop laden Pelicans. They could make a real mess of things in the matter of an hour or two. Their poop was slimey sticky and dried to the consistancy of plaster. They would foul the rigging and sometimes the radio gear. It was a pita to get up in the rigging to clean it up.
We would carry slingshots and chase em off
