is it raining or are there a couple hundred seagulls flying above me pissing and crapping all over me?




Don't ever feed seagulls at the beach unless of course you want to be attacked by hundreds of hungry, fearless birds. This reminds me of the time my brother and I went to the beach. We wanted to go surfing, swimming, and boogie boarding for the day. There was a hurricane forecasted a few thousand miles away or so that day. I don't know the details I was just told the waves would be good. Hurricanes may suck for some people, but I sure had a good time that day. Anyway, I digress, we brought some snacks since we planned on staying all day. Nutter Butters, some harvest grain granola bars, some pringles and water. Energy food. We were pretty set. So, we go swimming and stuff then, we take a break and have some snacks. The waves were pretty good so we went back in after putting the food away. The current was pretty strong so we end up pretty far down on the beach when we get out. On my way back to our plot on the beach I notice a school, pack, or heard of birds hanging out where our stuff is. So I run towards them scaring them off. I'm afraid I was tool late, the damage was done, but did birds do this? as I analyzed the scene I began to think that I was a victim of beach burglary. bags were opened plastic bags ripped apart all the remaining bars were taken. A wallet was out, credit card in another direction....etc. We eventually figured it was birds since everything was accounted for, but a few questions still remain to this day. What does a seagull want with a credit card, and what happened to the wrappers from the missing bars. They were nowhere to be found. ok, bed time.

ryan,

the way you captured those seagulls attacking you and your credit card is pretty spectacular. I'm glad you survived.
