The thought struck me that I enjoy hearing seagulls squawking when I am on vacation abroad, preferably close to the sea with a fresh breeze when you open the windows… I can fall asleep to that.
But I absolutely loathe the sound of seagulls that are nesting on house roofs near my home, far from the sea. They are fighting with other birds all the time and won’t stop squawking all night which makes it hard to sleep at times.
So when I am abroad, seagulls are fine. When I’m at home, seagulls are a pest.
And then you accept, that both are the sound of nature and stop getting angry over it. Once you have stopped getting angry, you can start sleeping to the lullaby of seagull squaks
