gulls eating bread

Gull dinner party

I baked another dud sourdough loaf which I threw onto the back lawn. A colony of gulls swooped in and demolished it all in less than a minute.

Before the gulls arrived some local birds had a go. I got this one brave bird feasting right in front of Victoria our cat. I’m not sure why they eat it when I have proper bird seed out in two places high out of reach of the cat. Maybe bread is like junk food for birds?

  1. Gulls are annoying when they attack bin bags – we have no bins in the centre of town and I don’t have room to store one on my property. However I have found that by commandeering old bubble wrap and parcel tape, i can make gull proof parcels. And I was thinking how after 6 years living a few miles from the coast, and working and often holidaying in coastal towns, life would sound strange without gulls.
    Is that a magpie? They seem to like eating most things.
