It was lunch time so before looking round the garden I nipped to the nearest baker and bought a blueberry muffin, which looked a lot more appetising than the rather gooey looking sandwiches. I then made my way back to the garden and sat on a bench to eat it The bag the muffin had been in made a bid for freedom and whilst I was trying to rescue it a small piece of blueberry muffin dropped on the floor next to my feet.
A few minutes later I was assailed by a rather large seagull who was weighing up the options of doing a duck and dive at the crumb. I had visions of my feet being skewered by his beak and he refused to be shooed away!

I like that bird’s attitude
He certainly had attitude! He was also magnificent
but I wasn’t to keen on that beak being so close to my ankle…
I bet he enjoy the blue berry muffin.
Coffee is on.
He did, when he eventually snatched and grabbed
Great take on the theme. Fun story and I love the shot of the gull.

Thanks Carver

Thanks Ayush
Look at that face. Looks really high spirited.
Attitude
Is he mad of the world? ^_^

I think he was trying to stare me out so he could take possession of the whole blueberry muffin
I’ve heard that seagulls can be quite… daring. I’m guessing this is particularly so for those whose range include places with significant human populations — in that they’ve become used to getting scraps from some humans?! ;O
Yes seagulls love their scraps
I like your take on the spicy theme
Seagulls are quite spirited here too!
Thanks Sue
That is a daring seagull!
Thanks for Spicing up The Saturday PhotoHunt.

He was a little bit more lively than the ones I am used to.
What a lively seagull! I thought they only eat fish. I guess it prefers variety in its food too.
From what I have seen, seagulls will eat absolutely anything!
I often throw out bread for the birds.
The crows and the starlings and the sparrows are all quietly polite and well mannered but I know when the gulls have arrived because they are raucous and bad tempered and fighting with each other. Noisy buggers!
Seagulls do make rather a racket. I don’t have any visit my garden, I get sparrows, blue tits, great tits, robins, wrens and blackbirds mostly. The small birds like the insects that the oak tree attracts
Excellent unusual take on the theme!
Thanks Lilian
Gulls are nasty.
I hate them.
They actually eat pigeons too!?
Did you know that?
No I didn’t know that, but it doesn’t surprise me!
