Mine! Mine!

Today's post took place at the St. Kilda Festival that was 3 months ago! I didn't get a chance to post it because I was posting on my trip back then so here it is now.

Remember the animated movie Finding Nemo? Remember the annoying seagulls that went "Mine! Mine!" every time they find anything edible? And anyone who used to live in Australia would know we have to put up with these annoying birds everyday when we go to the beach.

But look! They're here at the festival. And they're causing a racket on the streets of St. Kilda squalling and crowing at any passerby but lucky there were just 2 of them.

They like to stick their beaks into ladies handbags and follow them around hoping to find something to eat and they're not shy about it either. Somehow these ladies thought they're kind of amusing.

But though annoying, they are quite popular with the children and lots of little boys and girls will come up to them and talk to them. In return they would sometimes give them show bags from the festival.

They tend to distract the traders as well, playing with their goods and posing for anyone who wish to photograph them. Cam whores to the max!

Girl: Hello Mr. Seagull, would you like some chips?
Seagull: Mine! Mine!

Love them or hate them, these seagulls were damn entertaining at the festival. I managed to capture a short clip of them creating havoc on the street, do watch it below.
