Birds and waves at dawn, North sea, Scotland : Phantom4

Was having a fly around the coast where I live the other day when a group of seagulls flew at my drone, I thought they were going to attack it, so withdrew quickly. Once I had flown away, they settled down again.

The few encounters I've had with seagulls here in the US they really seem to get ticked-off at the drone LOL, I tend to stay away. Beautiful coastline!

Yeah gulls seem a bit highly strung at times, lol.

I've had a few encounters with them :)

brave ive had sparrows fly at my drone before so i stay away from birds now.

I've spent 100's of hours gaining the trust of some of the birds at our fishery. They are far more accepting of my multirotors than they are me :)
