Steven Seagull

Bloody Steven Seagull woke me at 5.30 again today. He's taken to paddling in our birdbath. I couldn't figure out why he's so attracted lately to our garden. Then I saw him making off with a windfallen apple clenched betweens his huge yellow bill. I wonder how far he can fly without dropping it. Have visions of some unfortunate person being hit by a falling apple and having that Newton moment.

I love the name Steven Seagull - very funny! I think it would make a good title for a book - a mixture of Segal action movie and a Jonathan Livingston-type Zen fable! Go on, have a go!
