THE REVIEW

‘Local seagulls practiced their dive bombing technique on painter Gus Kaloudis last.
week as he attempted to paint trim of Driftwood Manor apartment building on 2nd St.

Seagulls were taking exception to Kaloudis getting near their young offspring using:
building roof as a home until old enough to fly.

Animals of. all

species .are
generally” very. protective . of

their young: . offspring». and
seagulls are no exception.

Theo Kaloudis learned. that
lesson while attempting to paint
‘the roof trimming on the Drift-
wood ‘Manor. apartment.
building at 9851 -2nd St.
