“Seagulls keep banging on my window at 7/8am in the morning waking me up. If I leave them at it they’ll be going for hours. It was funny the first time it happened, but it’s starting to become a nuisance. Someone suggested that they’re seeing their reflections in the glass, but I’m not so sure. Any suggestions?”

“Dive-bombing seagulls have turned a London street into “something out of Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds”, say residents.”
“They told how the flock had settled on the rooftops of homes and offices, attacking elderly people, children — and anyone wearing red.”

“The gull droppings are so corrosive they can eat through paintwork on buildings and cars, while the birds have also ripped open plastic bin bags and targeted recycling containers, scattering the contents up and down the street as they scavenge for food.”

We’re not alone.
