A seagull just flew at me and snatched my sandwich out of my hand

[Deathbydolla]

as above. Just purchased a sandwich from Costa, thought "weather is great, I'll eat outside" and before I knew it, a huge seagull comes out of nowhere, scratches me and steals my sandwich right out of my hand. CF at its finest.

AIBU to think that this is just plain rude?!

DH had his lunch stolen a few times by seagulls at Gloucester Docks! Although clearly he didn't learn. He was pooed on a few times as well. Blinking cheeky things. They had no business being there, you know, it not being by the sea and all. SEA-gulls... Go and live by the SEA!!

Got to love the Dorito stealing seagull from Aberdeen:

Agreed that they're pests but they're only doing it because of the fuckwits who feed them. I see it every time I go to the beach - twats chucking bits of bread for them and then getting all surprised when they and everyone around them get dive bombed.

I was once about to tuck into a beautiful cream tea in Devon when a seagull swooped down and stole half my scone. Little bastard. It was an impressive move really. It didn’t even land on the table, just dive bombed and flapped its feathers in my face to distract me.

My worst bird encounter was when I worked in an office in an old stately home. There were loads of geese in the grounds who’d shit all over the place, which was bad enough, but come nesting season they’d turn completely crazy. You’d be walking along the paths and suddenly one would decide you were too close to it’s babies, so it’d start honking at you. One of them scared me so much that the takeaway coffee I was carrying slipped out my hand, splashing everywhere and burning my leg.

Apropos of not much at all, this reminds me of staying with friends in Florida during a severe drought, when a local lake was surrounded by almost comatose, apparently dying turkey vultures

The wildlife experts were in a right flap (sorry!!), thinking that perhaps they'd built up some toxin due to dehydration, but no ... they'd so gorged themselves on the fish made easily accessible by the low water that they couldn't fly

The seagull was clearly a very cheeky brat with no manners. Shame.
