Seagulls are waterfowl that usually live on the coast of the sea. In recent years, they have begun to get used to the city life, mainly because food is much more available.
However, this summer, I saw them more and more rarely in the park. They appear especially in the morning but do not stay too long in the area. They fly over the lake and rarely approach the surface of the lake. If they are lucky … they catch a fish if they don’t … they leave disappointed.
This seagull is in attack position! Not infrequently, seagulls were responsible for bloody attacks on people, who were left with head injuries!

gulls have adapted well to the human world.
There are places, especially at sea, where they sometimes become quite dangerous.
they are anywhere they are, too comfortable with humans
“The Birds” was filmed so close to where I lived once. Love that movie.
This is a beautiful picture. Really nice expression.
I thought he was attracted by my camera!?
I like the photo, what a magnificent capture.
Our seagulls are different from yours. Yours look softer.
In my area lives European herring gull (Larus argentatus). There may be other species in your area.
That is very interesting, there are a lot of different types of seagulls.
Wow you captured this one perfectly. I did know they were in The Birds movie. A classic for sure.
Thank you Carol! I was in the right place at the right time!?
