Ray, We, (farmer I work for) farm 1,600 acres farmland owned by MBS International Airport in Freeland, Mich. We are not allowed to till in any way any of the land inside the fence (700 acres) and some of the land near the approach, because tilling attracts the seagulls, and other birds which scavanger on fresh tilled ground, which is totally understandable. The Airport security has a truck which patrols the grounds and whenever they spot seagulls and other birds, will fire shotguns to scare them off, but they never aim directly at the birds for fear of hitting one. Surprisingly, or maybe not so surprisingly enough, the gulls protection status supercedes ultimately airline safety. scaring them to prevent being sucked up into the jet engines is OK, but killing them to prevent the same is not.
