My local recycling drive got hijacked by a flock of very determined seagulls
Our town organized a big plastic recycling event last Saturday at the park. We all brought bags of bottles and containers to drop off. Things were fine until a huge group of seagulls showed up looking for food. They started dive-bombing the piles, tearing bags open with their beaks. Plastic scraps flew everywhere, and people were running around trying to shoo them away. I got pecked on the head while guarding my bag of milk jugs. The organizers had to call it off early because it was such a mess. Now we're planning a covered bin system for next time, thanks to our feathery friends.
