    These are not seagulls they're medieval dragons!!! Seriously, I would doubt very much that a seagull has the strength necessary to break off a car aerial, they certainly couldn't break mine off and it's just an ordinary aerial ?

    Aye, Theyre getting worse than ever.
    I have another hate about them, but it aint their fault.
    PEOPLE FEEDING THEM!!!!
    It is Illegal, and an offence to do so. Most folks dont know that.
    I was at Nairn Harbour recently, and the Highland Council have posted nice wee signs on every lamp post telling folks not to feed them. They tell how it is an offence, and also say that nature is best left to its own devices.
    We could do with those signs round here.

    Here Here!!! I wholeheartedly agree! Thats my pet hate. Why oh Why do people insist on feeding them when (at least some) must know ITS ILLEGAL!

    The are blooming dangerous right now as they are protecting their young. They are swooping down on people all over Wick. They have drawn blood on a few people I know and one even had to have stitches on the scalp!

    I think we should have the signs too. Maybe the councillors should have spent the money on these as opposed to the Gaelic ones. Money better spent in my opinion!!
