you can tell the weather is cold on the coast when they come in the garden , they can spot you putting the food out from miles away .... even in the summer you can tell if it's rough out at sea when they come in ......

Good pic of the wings Amy...they all need their food don't they??
22 Feb, 2010
I had them in my garden when we had snow just after xmas,times are hard for them as well, and when weather is so bad there is no one on the prom feeding them.
22 Feb, 2010
Thanks Janey / Carole , I suppose they must miss all the chips thrown at them in the summer months ...lol...
22 Feb, 2010
I'm sure they do, mind you these in Blackpool should get fed abit more now at weekends as pleasure beach as started to open Saturdays and Sundays.
22 Feb, 2010
Gosh is that early Carole , i'm shivering at the thought of it .. I'll tell the Seagulls to go up there for a weekend treat of chips .....lol........
22 Feb, 2010
Thats a great pic Amy...
You going on the big dipper this weekend ,Clarice ?.:o))
22 Feb, 2010
Thanks Bloomer ....

They always open up about middle of Feb every year dont know if they will get many going this year, last few feb's have been quite warm.Bloomer i dont go near the pleasure beach at all, use to when i was young,(them where the days). You have to pay £20 just to go in it now. Mind you think you have to pay at most pleasure parks now days.

What ever will you get next Amy - what a variety you have in your garden. They know where the good grub is.
22 Feb, 2010
Yes...sure sign times are hard when the gulls land in our gardens ! Great shot Amy !
22 Feb, 2010
We do have a good assortment here Dawn , they come inland when it's colder Jane , are you far from the sea ? .. .
22 Feb, 2010
Four miles inland Amy....but we still see them in the fields and circling overhead !
22 Feb, 2010
You are a lot closer than us Jane we are about 20 as the crow flies , that's why we know we are in for some rough weather when they come in .....
22 Feb, 2010
What a lovely wing span - fantastic :)
22 Feb, 2010

22 Feb, 2010
Thanks San..will pass that onto Ray when he rings..xx Surely we must be saving lots of lives...this has been going on for so long.If we are exhausted with it all the birds must,as you say,be desperate.

It's good to hear that Rays Dad is in back in his own home Jane , and being looked after so well , Ray will be exhausted when he comes home from the mental strain of doing whats best for Dad .
I hope you had a good night and slept well . love to you both x

Lovely action shot, we get gulls down as soon as we put bread out, it takes them some time to get down as the garden is small, so they swoop eat and off, have been trying to get a shot for ages now.
23 Feb, 2010
What a wing span they have feel sorry for them but do try not to encourage them as I think the little birds have it a little more difficult to find food in the winter
Jane sorry to hear Rays dad as been poorly, but pleased he is settled back in his own home now, no matter how good the care is there is no place like your own home, best wishes to you both x
23 Feb, 2010
Thanks Angela and Carole I don't encourage them either , i'm pleased when they have gone they are so greedy ........
23 Feb, 2010
Thank you for your good wishes Pp...will pass them on to Ray.We have more SNOW forecast here for tonight....really sick of it now..........
23 Feb, 2010

23 Feb, 2010
Hope not San...havent got rid of the last lot yet....and that was only a couple of days ago ! Looking forward to the weekend.: o )
23 Feb, 2010
It's raining here , i'm not sure which is worse snow or rain ! Hope you are looking after yourself Jane and taking the trouble to eat properly , the weekend will soon come round .. take care x
