Two sassy seagulls causing havoc with traffic cameras is proof they’re getting organised

Seagulls

Graeme and Steve are really flocking things up.

It’s currently possible for some commuters in London to tweet cheat the traffic cam at the Blackwall Tunnel in Poplar, East London and it’s all down to the help of two mischievous seagulls.

Over the last few days, Graeme and Steve have been swooping in and repeatedly landing on top of a road camera in the English capital.

They’re clearly mocking (bird) the authorities here and if police ever get their hands on them, they’re bound to be jail birds. Definite fowl play.

If the two lads ever need somebody to break them out of prison, Steven Seagull is the man to call.

We’ll fly away forever after those puns.

The Transport for London’s (TfL) Twitter feed has alerted Londoners to the deadly duo and after making their first appearance on Monday, they’ve since returned.

If you happen to be on these roads, beak careful out there and listen to this advice.

Don’t just wing it.
