If you ever thought that all birds are sweet, innocent, and fluffy, well… we have bad news for you: some of them are total jerks. Seagulls for example are evil bastards who will steal an ice cream cone right out your hand. Scroll down to the see the hidden dark side that dwells within their little hearts.
Rude
Damned shitehawks! Great photography 👍
They seem awfully fond of ice cream. I suppose it doesn’t show up in their standard diet of road kill and garbage.
There is no such thing as a “seagull”
JJA is correct. These are GU-11’s, second generation Naval scavenger drones. The original were a WWII concept later used the in Falklands – the B1-RD.
You go, JJA!!! There’s no such thing as irrelevant and pedantic comments.
This is ridiculous. How can seagulls “steal”??? Stealing is a legal definition, based on a human-made construct, derived from scriptures and societal norms. Is this some kind of attempt to use stealing as the excuse for the extermination of seagulls, because of how hated they are? Can we not learn to coexist with other species??? I’d say that seagulls are people too, if I wasn’t so sickened by people!!!! BAD BAD BAD!!!!
Abolish Everything – including facts. Without facts, you have Trump.

I live in a seaside town and LOVE the bolshy, don’t give a damn seagulls.
Besides a number of those ice cream shots seemed deliberate. You wave good around, chances are a gull will have a go at it.
Fish the seas dry and blame the gulls for coming inland where there’s food readily available…I love gulls!
I live in Cornwall by the sea and absolutely love seagulls! When lots of holiday makers are down here in July and August the seagulls are feeding their big chicks and people are walking around and eating. They are very good parents and the seas are over fished. I have a couple of ‘pet’ seagulls Sammy and Samantha who have come to see me over many years and they trust me enough to bring their offspring each year too. Love Em!
Oh, these evil little shit heads, yeah, right, dont take a clown to work out, positions of peoples hands etc, they are not all bad, just the odd rogues can make them look bad, I mean, is there anything in this world that humans wont moan about, maybe if we did not over fish, there would be plenty. Sorry, I dont hate them, they are smart and beautifull birds. Get over it, we just had poor people being flooded out!!!!
They are herring gulls . The trouble is inland ones get fed by people so now they occupy town roofs and become noisy & dangerous to tbe locals when their chicks have hatched Also ransack any containers & bags looking for food. They are lovely flying around the seaside but not welcome on my roof.
Come on!!! Don’t call them ‘evil’ or ‘dark hearted’ they’re nothing of the sort. Show some journalistic/ editorial responsibility. They’re survivors and scavengers, and the closest relation to the dinosaurs. So many lies about them, their ‘massive talons’ (The Sun) are little webbed feet like a duck’s, with little claws. Their ‘huge bite’ is actually not that strong, much weaker than a dog’s – which can seriously maim and kill and dogs do all the time without being hated. Be kind to the lovely gulls please.
I agree, they are God’s creatures and we invaded their space and food source, so what do you expect, if your children were hungry you would do what you had to in order to feed them.
Some pretty great photography.
@David Attenborough: Nope, wrong. The other guy made these things.
Years ago I was at the beach with my husband, carrying a big plastic bag filled with peanut-butter graham cracker sandwiches. A-hole seagull swooped down and took off with the entire bag. The little jerk.
Seagulls are not b******s they are cheeky conniving but cute birds 🦅
Na they are” b******s”as you type it @bird watching
one sassy seagull snatched a slice of pizza right out of my mom’s hands!
the best human is a DEAD human, except vegans. you are all corpse eaters, dogs, murderers, demonic spirits from hell. killing 50 BILLION animals a year. that is 6.5 million an hour. do not talk about these birds taking some food, you all deserve to dire in pain, you dogs. and you will, soon. bet on it.

When I have the time and opportunity, I make a point to always feed the seagulls…
… plenty of Alka Seltzer. Just toss one in the air and watch the soon to be balloons sail down to snap them up. It’s a great hobby.
I Was Laughing So Hard About Those At My Grandma’s House! LOL
I remember reading this very article on another website 10+ years ago. Same images too
yaknow, seagulls hang out behind ships at sea and landfills. and now apparently concession stands on piers. the common element here is the garbage they find to eat. just sayin
