Les héritiers

A colony of ring-billed gulls nests beside Canada's largest landfill, where the birds feed their young throughout the breeding season. Their daily lives unfold between prey and predator as they become subjects of invasive data collection and targets of harsh deterrence measures carried out through the age-old practice of falconry. Amid mass consumption and pollution, their struggle reflects the uncertain ways living creatures may survive and die in the ecologies of the future.
