I'm near the coast here in New Zealand, so we get lots of noisy seagulls too.
I've spent a lot of time over the years trying to grow plants that attract various birds and I've also placed feeders in the trees, to attract various species, and it is starting to pay off in a small way

Thank you. Yes it is. But every year we get a wind within days of it looking its best and it gets knocked around a bit. Luckily this spring I got some reasonable photos before it got decimated lol.
