Seagulls will eat anything. Bread would work. You may even start a food fight. Other sea birds can be more picky. After bread I would try some small fish. Tossing some fish off of a dock can attract a crowd. The birds are more comfortable in the water than on shore. Here is one taken with a Takumar 55mm on Tri-X. Notice the bait fish just off the end of the dock. http://members.shaw.ca/hargravep/Seagull-Landing.jpg Powell
