Evil seagulls

Postby Mictheslik » Wed Jun 10, 2009 9:40 am

Last year a pair of seagulls had a nest in the chimney stack opposite our garden......they're back  >:(

Nevertheless, they do make interesting subjects as they swoop down on anything that approaches their nest (doesn't make up for the fact they wake me up at 5:30 banging on my window....)

Oh, I've tried......I put a remote doorbell on my window ledge with the activate button next to my bed so if I get woken up I can scare them away with that.....unfortunately they seem to have become immune to it....if only they shipped doorbells with bird of prey noises.....

I was considering taking pot shots with a BB gun, but found out that's illegal :P

Hmm, the last time I saw a bird from this perspective. The little bastard hit head on into my windshield and was quickly passed by it's a$$ passing through it's brain...... :D

Must be a heck of a head rush to die with your a-hole wrapped around your beak.....rotflmao

Great pictures BTW..... ;)
