If you ever wonder why seabirds eat plastic, I have your answer. But before that, let's start with the "braseo".
About the 90% of the seabirds eat plastic, we know that the seabirds identificate the food via smell, and analyzing the plastic that they eat, which is the surface of the sea, they found chemicals that our winged friends associate with food, but now are also associated with plastic. This chemical is similar to the odour of a cabbage, which is also the odour of algae or phytoplankton. The fact that the plastic could be shiny, and attract the birds and the confusing odour, made the seabirds eat all this palstic.
And thats why they eat plastic.
I prefer not post images, cuz the only images that I could put are from dead birds and stuff like that.
