Broad and Reel

Not too long ago I posted an article with 8 things that really annoy me when it comes to people and the environment. I left it at 8 because at the time, I couldn’t think of 9 and 10.

So here’s 9.

Don’t feed your french fries, donuts or any other food to the seagulls. I don’t think you are doing them a favor and they become accustomed to eating people food.

Several weeks ago Justin and I went to Britt’s Donuts (best donuts in the whole wide world). We thought it’d be nice to take our warm donuts and walk on the beach.

Just one seagull was roaming around when we got out there. But within a few minutes there were at least 20 birds demanding our donuts. Believe me they weren’t nice about it. All of them were squawking and “charging” at us.

After running around the beach like dorks we threw the remains of the donuts but the birds kept chasing us. I assumed they associated the white paper bag in my hand with food. I tossed that bag and they eventually backed off.

Don’t feed the birds…
