Top Comments of this video!! :3
I am here because I sort of helped a Herring Gull that had been mauled by a cat last year. She came back this year and laid eggs here on the roof outside my window so I have been watching them. They are very good parents actually. She normally sits on my window ledge quietly all day although he is a bit more noisy. When they fight (Not with each other though) they will first try to gain control over the other bird by grabbing their top beak as like a restraint hold almost. I am guessing to show their dominanace. Cheers for the video.

Where I live they live in roofs all over the city and they seem to talk with each other like a network. One goes with the long Call, and some other, 2-3 miles away squeaks back, as a msg being passed through to a distant place. I sometimes scare one off, and it makes a different noise - as if to inform the others about it. It's hard to sleep with them around.

Excellent stuff. Much the same as with most species on earth, including us; signalling/communication is obviously preferred in evolution, as death tend to stop breeding... Nevertheless, it is hard to find good info about seagulls. I have a lot of them at my estate, and I try to "play" with them, finding out how they work (without causing harm). When I was young I saw them as pest with wings, but now I am fascinated with their simplistic beauty, and evolutionary success.

At 3:40 the left gull says: kek kek and the right gull says: What? π
