A bricklayer says he “lives in fear” because an aggressive “demon” seagull attacks him every time he gets home.
Calum Gow is terrorised by the feathered menace which has been nesting on his roof for two weeks.
The 25-year-old and his family have to scamper to safety from the angry bird.
Calum said: “It has probably been swooping on us for two weeks.
“It was going for my brother to start with and then it saw me with him and I was getting it as well.
“It goes for anyone who walks past.
“I wouldn’t say it’s scary. It’s more funny than anything because you have to run away from it.”
Calum, from Glasgow, filmed a standoff between him and the gull.
In a hilarious clip, the brickie sits in his car dreading the short walk to his house knowing he will have to face his winged nemesis.
The Scot says: “Fing big thing is just waiting on that chimney, waiting on me to get out the motor so it can fing swoop down on us. Fing daftie man.” When Calum reaches the middle of the road, the gull swoops down on him as he nears his home.
The bird narrowly misses his head as it tries to stop him from getting to the house.
Calum then sprints to his door and can be heard hysterically laughing, before saying: “Oh my God, that fing came in the house.”
This comes as earlier in the month it was reported a psycho seagull boom is on the way because the pandemic has stopped officials applying for licences to destroy their eggs.
Councils usually coat the shells with a liquid paraffin oil to stop the inner embryo from developing, which effectively sterilises them.
But there is currently a delay in licences for gull control being granted by Natural England.
