@ColetteWillis1 Those flying ants must hang out in Howth for the rest of the year causing Seagulls to attack cats, roofers, and little women running down to Mass. -
Seagull: sorry I was such a dick earlier. I was drunk on ants.

Unlikely that acid would progress past the first section of the gastro-intestinal tract

Comment from the article “Gulls are great opportunists and if there's an abundance of ants and insects, they'll just get stuck in and will be so focussed on eating, they won't move for the cars” - that sounds plausible

That’s true

You think that's strange? You should see how humans act when they get drunk.
