Seagull Helps Himself to Meal



Conlett White of Hove, East Sussex, UK, planned to play a prank on his housemate, Richard Hammond. White made a special tuna salad meal for Hammond and left it on the counter. It was "special" because all the food was laced with lots of pepper. Since he couldn't be there to see Hammond's reaction, White rigged a camera to catch the scene. Instead, the camera caught a seagull who came in through the window for a free meal. Now, pepper doesn't bother birds, but after the seagull ate an entire plate of food, he suffered some punishment while trying to escape the kitchen. I honestly don't understand what Brits have against window screens. (via Arbroath)

Brit here. We just don't need them. A few flies, maybe the odd wasp but no mosquitos and so nothing worth the bother of setting up a fly screen.

A screen might help with seagulls, cats, and foxes.
