I went to pull in my driveway and notice a bird walking down the middle of the road. I get close enough and see it's a seagull. I stop my car as the bird is blocking the entrance to my driveway and the stupid thing starts walking TOWARDS my car. I can't see it anymore, so I have to back up. It's still walking towards my car, so I back up some more and go around it.
I stop my car at the top of my driveway so I can get the mail and the bird comes toward me. I talk to it and it's not at all afraid. It starts pecking at stones and rocks looking for something to eat, so I go and get my mail. Well, the dang thing starts walking towards my still RUNNING car and goes underneath it. I try calling to it to come out, but it's just standing under my car pecking.
I say enough, get in my car, put it in gear, and slowly move forward. I look in the rear-view mirror and bird is still there, but now is FOLLOWING my car. I give it some gas, tear down my driveway, and lose the bird.
WTF? Is the bird sick? Dying? Rabid?
