@matt It was waiting for the opera to start. It enjoys the high seas.
-
@CiaraNi I’m sure, it will open up, if you always have a bit of softice and a couple of fries on you.
@nerdd Bribery, good idea
-
@CiaraNi I know, I know. You'd be morto.
@psneeze Just totally morto
-
@jonasgeiler Oh no they must have found my toot
HIDE.
-
@cazmockett I carry around a garden gnome for that. It sends postcards home.
@CiaraNi nice friend!
-
I think I'll start carrying this sign around with me
I like the fact that the signs in Cornwall say Beware The Gulls. As opposed to Beware Of The Gulls. Beware The Gulls sounds more ominous, more chilling, more 'these creatures are demonic, you are in grave peril'.

@jgrg Don't tell it I said this, but it's a handsome bird
-
@jonasgeiler I think I'd better!

@CiaraNi I swear they're up to something...

I was joking about the same seagull following me everywhere, but now that I skim some random photos, maybe I'm not
@CiaraNi I've heard something similar about ducks, but not seagulls. A combination of Anatidaephobia

@CiaraNi It is. I wanted to identify it because it looks different to anything I've seen in the UK. Its dark eye makes it look a little more kind.

@rvedotrc Haha, so well done

@jgrg I hadn't thought of the difference between them in different territories. Interesting. "Its dark eye makes it look a little more kind." That's a lovely observation. Agreed - the yellow eyes make gulls seem more 'malevolent'. When they're attacking you, especially.

@benjaminlj Ha yes, and maybe it's not a phobia either because it's a *rational* fear, because seagulls are bloody ferocious when they're after something

@CiaraNi if you carry food near one or more seagulls, then yes, you are in danger

@benjaminlj In constant danger, so, because the seagulls are everywhere i midtbyen

A faithful companion, my seagull. Following me around even at sunrise.
@CiaraNi Reasonably sure this one is a blacked headed gull in the middle of transitioning between winter and summer plumage or an immature adult. Their heads are only black in summer once they’re breeding age.
