KweMsit Wen:

When Nick and I went on our trip down south this spring, our 200th bird on our 
list was the Laughing Gull.  I remember coming back from a swamp in Louisiana, a 
bit disappointed, as there was very little activity and driving by a mall where 
a strange looking gull flew across the road and into the parking lot.  I drove 
the car into the lot, cautioned Nick to be quiet and careful not to startle the 
bird.There were about a dozen Laughing Gulls milling around the lot.   Nick 
walked very carefully and took some shots.  I then realized that the birds were 
looking very hungrily at us.  I turned around and lo and behold, we were in a 
Burger King parking lot.  I went in to buy some french fries.  I told our friend 
to take one fry at a time and toss it into the air.  Nick and I got our flights 
shots of the Laughing Gulls who flew all around us in search of the food.  It 
was fun and a very nice way to celebrate our 200th bird.

I felt a bit guilty about doing this-contributing to the gulls hardening of the 
arteries et al but reading that post from Marg where Blake told her to feed the 
gulls hot dogs and sausages-I no longer feel guilty.
