When we were on holiday gulls were mobbing a drone being flown over the plage.

I got attacked by my seagull on Wednesday night, second time within a week. Same place again.

Mine must have been as I was too close to a nest/young.

It was like groundhog day; same attack from the same lamppost. Swooped down three times and then came to rest on another lamppost, same both times, presumably to make sure I stayed significantly far away.

That would be enough for me to cancel my RSPB membership.

I immediately thought of a Fetchie - think itā€™s @Muttley ? - who does a coastal race which earns participants a pasty. He would not be pleasedā€¦

Urgh, don't get me started on the feckin' seagulls. Constant hazard round here at this time of year. I have the buggers circling above me and flying low overhead screeching on every run. They should be culled, no idea why they're protected.

And we know in these parts to hold the pasty close to the chest.

Supposedly over 200 choughs in Cornwall now?
They must be having an election or census or something - I saw about 20 today.
All in a bunch. Or a clattering if you prefer.
Or a "Choughing Heck".

Will be back with pics later.
