Bird love Doritos
Has anyone seen this?

The bird walks into the RS McColl newsagents in Aberdeen when the door is open and makes off with cheese Doritos. The seagull, nicknamed Sam, has now become so popular that locals have started paying for his crisps.

I saw that on the news. I like how he's the designated shoplifter for the flock.
On the other hand, cheese Doritos are good.

Someone sent me that today. I'm not surprised. We were on the beach this summer and a seagull pulled a bag of cheese popcorn out of the beach bag, opened it, and started eating. They know that junk food!

I heard about this from a few unrelated people...funny how it gets around.

Makes me think of the gulls from Finding Nemo... "Mine? Mine? Mine?"

We have a horrible time with fish crows around here. They raid the golf course next to us and rob people's food off of their plates and food out of their carts. We are constantly finding half eaten food in our yard. One time I found a pecan log, a bear claw danish and part of a sandwich in my fountain from them.

A seagull once stole the hot dog out of my father's roll!
