Out of 8 billion people, we can expect silliness and humour every single day. Today's enjoyment is the "seagull boy" who has retained his screeching title of mimicking the call of gulls.
From the BBC:
A 10-year-old British boy has defended his European title for mimicking seagulls - seeing off competition, this year, from his little sister.
Cooper, from Chesterfield in Derbyshire, took the marine bird imitation world by storm when hishigh-pitched impression of a gullsaw him soar to victory in the 2024 EC Gull Screeching contest.
Now he has become the first screecher to retain the juvenile category crown in the competition's five-year history.
His seven-year-old sister Shelby, now known as "Sea Gurl", made it a high-flying weekend for the family by landing fourth place.
And notice they've used the term "seagull." It is a colloquial term but is incorrect. There are just varieties of gulls. Who is to worry at this point in the gull screeching competition? If you listen, it just seems a bit tacky But we'll take any humour these days, won't we?
Here's a gull in the Canadian Tire parking lot way back in 2011. Perfectly placed with a Canadian flag.
