Adorable little gull loaf in the town centre today
#good morning my dear! here's a delightful sight common around these parts ๐#and this has reminded me that i need to tell you about the sheer gumption of this seagull child i saw on my walk two days ago#the gulls around here are big... very very big... and like sidney they are not generally afraid of people or being done harm to#universally though they do know to take off when people are too close or when there are cars coming#but apparently this child didn't get the memo and that morning i saw a whole ass bus engaged in a stand-off with this teenage seagull#just standing right there in front of the bus. which was SLOWLY MOVING as gracefully as a double decker could trying to dodge this gull#but it was a narrow road so that wasn't happening. the gull wasn't even doing anything it was standing like it had all the time in the worl#not the slightest speck of a thought in its head#this was not near a bus stop or anything so there were not any people to step out onto the road and intervene#it took a driver from the opposite side stopping their car in the middle of the road and SLOWLY coaxing the gull across for it to leave#both the no thoughts head empty gull and the delicate early morning frustration of everyone involved made an impression on me ๐คฃ#there's never a dull day watching birds around the coast#anyway that's my latest bird story. i think i'm going to do some painting today and buy myself a little treat because i deserve it ๐#you have a lovely weekend my dearest ๐๐๐๐๐#seagull#birds#cute
