Title: Gull Post by: Donna on 07-Dec-09, 02:10:51 PM Why is there a Gull flying around my yard. I have never ever seen one flying this low before...especially right above my house. What a weird day for me. Hawk hasn't come back yet. I'm paranoid and keep looking out the window to see if it's around. Birds just started coming back to feeder. :scaredblue:

Around here you see them in parking lots looking for garbage. Sometimes they come down from the lake.

Oh yeah, the parking lots are full of Gulls here too...but never saw one circling over my house. I'll feed him anything he wants. I don't think he'll be back....just a fluke. |
