A favorite park back in Wiscaaaaahnsin was infested by home to enormous herds of a flock of seagulls (non pop-stars branch of the family). One day my 'Little' and I were enjoying a picnic when I observed an extremely large-wing-spanned creature hovering about 2 feet above my head, according to my shadow. (She was waiting for me to either notice the shadow or the bird with the fascination tweens have at seeing adults in potential peril.)

"Is it the Holy Spirit?" I asked her.   ;)

"I don't think so," she laughed.   :D

So we moved to the safety of the car and held future picnics at seagull-free locations. The first seagull or two are kind of neat. After the third or fourth hundred thousand, they start losing their appeal...

Seagulls can get really nasty, esp. if they find a person helpless. As far as I know crows and other corvids usually wait until a potential large food source is dead. As countless horror stories of shipwreckees tell, seagulls don't. And they start with the eyes.

The aspitriglos is edible though I do not actually recommend it.

Seagulls, like most other successful breeds of animals (including humans) are opportunists. :-\ ;)
There are horror stories about a lot of different birds. Here stories and superstition almost lead to complete extinction of our ravens, them being a symbol/omen of bad luck as they where said to congregate around the gallows before an execution among other things.

I like seagulls, but they do belong in the archipelago or near lakes not in the cities living on trash. :(

I love the call of the Laughing Gull* in the morning. It sounds like hilarity.
But the standard seagulls looks better.
Albatrosses look even better but they are rare in these parts :mrgreen:

When I was a kid I used to call Laughing Gulls "Chocolate Dipped Gulls" I thought they looked like they had dipped their head in a cup of drinking chocolate. ;D
