      You must not live near them.

      So cool to be woken up when these bastards decide to have a screaming match at 3 in the morning.

        Wait, do you sleep outside or what? How are your walls not able to cancel out gull screams?

          Walls, yes, but most houses have windows also. Even apartments that are higher up and closer to the sound!

          During hot summers, windows are partially open (AC not common in European homes). For a couple of years, there was this one gull who took the surrounding rooftops as its place to be. It would perch on a corner and just yell it’s damn lungs off randomly at all times of the day.

          I also saw one gull trying to fuck up a crane (the bird) today. And another summer, one gull tried to eat a baby duckling. Duck momma went nuclear and smacked that gull into giving up.

        Idk i do and still think they’re pretty cool. Also assholes and extremely loud, but cool nonetheless.

      Maybe, but annoying af when their incapable spawn starts walking around town. The parents are so over-protective, they start screaming and attacking you if you come near their baby.

        One species sometimes opens fire if you come to close to its kids…

          Right, but you don’t even have to be actually near them. Like, you’re walking to the grocery store or something, and like 60 ft away is a baby gull and these fuckers are attacking YOUR kids while we’re all just trying to pass. We don’t even understand until we see this little thing walking around waaay over there. It’s different, and annoying/dangerous.
