My hometown is by the sea and seagulls are annoying, especially the giant ones. They’d rather eat trash than fish these days and they chase off smaller birds

A couple of years ago there was a feature on the BBC World News about a seaside town in either Devon or Cornwall which showed harmless humans sitting on a bench, enjoying the view, unwrapping their sandwiches and having them snatched out of their hands by very large and determined seagulls. The municipality had to put up warning signs, I think.
Apparently that happened to a friend of mine in Australia!
And they screech. At least the sound of pigeons is pleasant.
