Hee in MN I can’t even give a seagull a cross look without potentially getting a fine.

Hope the squirt is okay.

Only if it was a European seagull, rather than an African Seagull

Maybe we can train the seagulls to snatch and deport other types of Mexicans.

Are you suggesting that her partner wrung the neck of the nasty rat and disposed of the remains?

I bet that's what happened.

But, there is a 170 grams (a bit less than 5 ounces) chihuahua. Milly is her name on youtube.

A Blue Jay brought me a rock yesterday.
It must appreciate the peanuts I throw out for it every day.

It was a small rock. Lots of speckles.
I think it loves me.
I just feed it so it will leave my other friends alone.

I have rabbits!
A Big Bald Eagle swooped across my yard trying to catch one the other day...
Eh, nobody will believe that one.

Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh!

Yeah. My sons and I were on the shore here in CT. It was low tide and we walked out to very small island. There was a bull’s nest. We started walking towards it and the mother gull started making noise. Some dumb ass woman warned us from disturbing the nest. I so wanted to tell her to shut the hell up - it’s just a crummy seagull. There’s hundreds of these horrid creatures all over the place.

I had a yorkie

3 lb puppie.

We noticed the seagulls were interested in him at the beach and we put a long leash on him, and they didnt bother him

They never tried him at pounds.

Out here in the country, the hawks and eagles would have swooped him up.

A hawk snatched my mom’s chihuahua puppy from the front yard. Daddy ran in, got his shotgun, and shot over the bird. It dropped the puppy in a grove of pines on the other side of our pond. The puppy was treated for scrapes and punctures, but was otherwise fine.

“In Britain, they use “partner” for everything from a one night stand to a spouse.”
_____________________________________

Its use was originally encouraged to avoid the stigma of homosexual/lesbian relationships. It was thought to ease acceptance of those relationships by heterosexuals.

Eventually, it also encompassed usage of heterosexuals simply shaking up.

Its used quite often now in legal/state forms.

"Small enough to fit right down a Seagulls gullet."

If the poor doggie was lucky he went fast like that. Typically birds (other than pelicans, egrets, herons, and other birds with large gullets) will eat their victims alive, picking them apart, starting with the soft parts. I've seen it often, and it's not pretty.

Then I’m glad we keep our kitties indoors all the time! Would hate to see one of them flying through the air in some bird’s mouth.
