That’s me and the crows that visit in my back yard. I toss bread crumbs and broken potato chips out there for them. I’ve never been talked down by one, but I have received a few upset “CAWS” on occasion. Must be the cat.
We were visiting friends in California and had gotten some ice cream from a vendor at the beach. Signs everywhere said to watch out for sea gulls and not to feed them. There was a placard on the vendor’s stall stating if a sea gull took the ice cream to return and they’d replace it. A gull took my wife’s ice cream and the vendor made good on the promise.
Reminds me of a visit to the University of Houston campus with my girlfriend many years ago. We were walking across campus and sat down on a bench. I was eating a Payday candy bar (the one covered in peanuts). This squirrel came over, sat down next to the bench and looked at me with this attitde of , “Well?”.
My husband and I use to buy loaves of bread and then tear it up into pieces and then feed the seagulls while on the beach or in our boat. We would throw the pieces up into the air and the seagulls would try to catch them while they were in flight. Some of them must gave had some previous experience because some of them never missed.

This proves what I’ve thought for years. Seagulls are thugs.

I always say, if you don’t have any bread to feed them, let them eat (fish) cake.

PSA: don’t feed nesting birds white bread. They feed it to the babies and the babies die of malnutrition.

Do sea birds eat bread? I would think they’d expect minnows.

Yeah. Gulls are little more than sea going vultures. Big flappy bastrds.

Entitled birds demanding something for nothing only fly using their left wing.

Seagulls are like flying goats. They will eat practically anything, which is why they often are found hanging out at landfills.

Bread is bad for birds. Bring seed or worms instead.

Stupid birds! You want bread? Go to the park!!! Beaches are where seagulls steal hotdogs!
