Corey is the hero we never knew we needed. Wearing an eagle outfit, he patrols a popular waterfront to protect visitors and their food from chip-nicking feathered thieves
harbour in North Yorkshire, known for gulls stealing chips from people's trays. And although he can earn a pretty penny from tips, he said the crafty gulls have taken"revenge" on him by pooing on his spotlessly clean car each day, reported“I’ve had gulls hit me on the side of the face with their wing before, then they’ll get down, take your food. They’ll do it so quickly that you just don’t expect it at all.
Starting his work at 6am, he valiantly defends Whitby's chip-loving visitors throughout the summer months. He was attracted to the job, where he earns a standard rate of £15 an hour, after developing a fascination with birdwatching with his grandfather. "It was a wedding party, and there were seagulls all over trying to get to them. It was a couple of months ago, and I went over, did my job, and they said: ‘This is for doing that and looking after us!'"Alex, co-owner of Mister Chips, whose fans include The Grand Tour’s James May, said customers have been overjoyed with Corey's sterling efforts to scare the gulls away.
