As an aside, is Seagull edible or is it like Pigeon and laden with disease?

There are recipes for gull.

Or try it Jutland-style.

Don't let anyone tell you that mutton birds/tītī, a traditional Māori dish, are seagulls. They are petrels. :colbert:

I saw a YouTube cooking challenge show where the chef stuck with a pigeons breast muscles. He said those would be least likely to have parasites.

You can eat pigeons.

Pigeon is eaten from time to time (I've eaten it on occasion), but it's not the urban type of pigeon that most people think of.

I suppose those would be edible as well if properly cooked, but the fact that it seems to be rare even in developing countries makes me suspicious. City pigeons are really easy to catch.

e: reading Wikipedia it seems they're usually rock pigeons either way so have at it boys

Exploration is ill-advised.
Doves (which are basically the same as pigeons) used to be eaten all the time iirc, at least if my King Arthur Pendragon books are accurate. An aviary of doves would make a convenient source of meat in winter.

Pigeons were domesticated thousands of years ago and bred for both meat and messenger duties; apparently it was the most common food bird in Europe/the Middle East before the chicken came over from Asia. The modern urban pigeon is actually a feral, derived from escaped domestic pigeons.

Pigeons are inherently edible but city pigeons eat trash and live in the city streets so you probably don't want to eat them unless you like diseases.

Quail on the other hand are poison.

there's this dude who hangs in out in Washington Square Park in NY and talks to/feeds the pigeons, he is usually surrounded by a flock of them they will chill on his shoulders/head. He'll give you a handful of food if you also want city pigeons crawling all over you for some reason. pretty sure he is a supervillain of some sort

I'd just have to guess that somebody connected to Putin who is nicknamed "The Surgeon" has sent a threatening message to the president of Slovakia.

Surgeon of the Night Wolves connected to Putin is probably the last person I would want to shake hands with at some weird Russian dinner party. Sounds like a late game Metal Gear Solid boss you can only beat by poisoning him with his own home blended cocktail
