/r/Seagulls
seagulls, gulls, and terns too why not.
Dreyfus once wrote from Devil's Island that he would see the most glorious birds. Many years later in Brittany he realized they had only been seagulls... For me they will always be - glorious birds.

This might sound kinda dumb but a few months ago I thought the spotty seagulls were a different type of seagulls, and then found out that they were like young seagulls
I have a special interest in seagulls
I've been feeding a seagull at work who ive called Cynthia for the last few months🤣 and it will eat from my hand and follow me room to room from the balcony, it won't come close to any staff member only me and will come right to the window. The other day it brought a crab and kept tapping on the window and once I acknowledged the seagull it left the crab I'm wondering is it sharing its food? What does this mean?
This is probably a really stupid question but its incredibly common that birds legs have a bend that goes backwards, and usually always bent at their knee. So whats the reason for gulls to have fully straight legs?
Working on the boat with my father this late summer - willing to eat out of my hand, this one.
Hey all,
My dad is a clam digger and I’m constantly feeding the seagulls clams when they break. I always try to be fair and feed the less aggressive ones as well lol
Today I have one a piece of my coffee cake and another a small piece of a chocolate chip cookie. Is this okay? Usually I just give them shell fish or a piece of my sandwich - I can’t really find a consistent source on it so I figured I’d ask.
Also- is there anything toxic to seagulls in general?

Legs is missing a foot and is bullied out of food by other seagulls due to his/her disability, so I make sure Legs gets fish everyday.
I notice hundreds of seagulls start heading a direction once it starts to get dark. Its actually an amazing and beautiful sight to see. I'm not sure exactly what they're doing but they all go together.
They sit high on the roof top, but only come over to store for me and one other coworker. They don’t move for other two or customers. Is it Love or the Food?
I know they mate for life so they rarely divorce, I’m just curious about the stats.
For context, if I'm out and about and I see a seagull picking at a packet, or maybe a whole apple, I'll go help em. So I'll pour the contents of the bag onto the sidewalk, or if it's a food item I'll try and break it up into smaller pieces so that they can actually eat it.
My question is, will they actually remember this? Is it a crow type situation where overtime they'll think I'm really cool, or do seagulls not work like that?
