The husband stopped for gas the other day in his truck. Since I wasn’t with him, he opted for a little haute cuisine a la convenience store.
Pizza slices in hand…. he settled into the truck cab to munch.
And then?
This:
A seagull spotted him. ( Or more likely his pizza )
Husband said the silly thing squawked up a storm, pacing back and forth on the hood.
When that didn’t earn him any pizza, he attacked the windshield wipers.
Husband said it was such a spectacle, people were taking pictures and one woman asked if she could put it on Facebook.
So if you see a retired Marine in a black Ford truck looking like Tippi Hendren on your news feed?
That’s my man.
And his new seagull friend.
River's world..... 
If it came down to it, I’d imagine your husband could’ve taken the bird in a fair fight…

Fair, yes.
But we all know seagulls are dirty fighters.

They’re pretty filthy when they’re not fighting…

I’ll look for the Pizza-Marine meme to start.

And now we know, he is not shy about taking pictures. So you are a duo or a duet? But either way, you are a couple.

This was an extremely rare situation. I doubt he has 100 pictures on his phone. I have 14,000.

Wow….I feel I have to many with 100 but I try to be more in style with phone and taking photos with my little phone camera. That is how I got the picture for my recent blog about the falcon which visited our backyard.

Well, that is how I was able to take a picture of the falcon visiting our backyard for my last blog with a camera phone so they do come in handy.

I have a pocket 35 mm and a large DSLR… but the phone is just so damn portable and easily accessed.

It might be a revenge thing. The pizza toppings might include his relatives. I mean, it IS a convenience store pizza, after all.

Maybe your husband should have fed the bird the first piece, you know, to make sure it was palatable and stuff.

Reminds me of a joke I heard yesterday—a seagull with diahera was afraid he wouldn’t make it to New York in time!
