    Interesting re pellet contents, my Saker I flew at lures back in the 20th century only ever casted feathers, the bones were all consumed, though she didn't eat racing pigeons with rings on.

    Not too many Owls that are likely to be the culprits, Long Eared and Short Eared will take birds that are roosting, they'll not take anything on the wing. Eagle Owls and Snowy's will hunt birds as will a Tawny if it's hungry enough, the rest are unlikely in the north sea.

    My Saker used to cast a pellet of undigested feathers and bones every morning, I believe Corvids do too as well as Owls

    Could this be gulls feeding on an already dead carcass rather than a predatory attack? I guess without a lab report, you will probably never know.
