wow you suck. drones are really terrible for birds. least you could do is have empathy, but nah.
Just to be clear, while I'm joking around here to make a funny, you're 100% right and I do everything in my power to be as little intrusive as I can especially in actual natural areas. The birds I'm talking about here are city-rat-style seagulls, they're not in any danger, in fact if you read the subtext of my original comment, you'll notice I fly away from them immediately which is the correct thing to do for both them and the drone. Also I'm currently taking steps to move into new niches in my work so I don't need to fly so often, because while I do love it I recognise it bothers people and wildlife and don't really want to do it more than I absolutely need to.

One stole my chips once
Us humans stole pretty much all their habitat.
I wanted that chip bad enough that I stomped on the bird.
Oh wow so cool and edgy.

It's tragic. People get up in arms about tomato soup on famous paintings ... this is even worse because every species taken out of the ecosystem is a lost node in a complex web that sustains us, lost species represent a loss of learning about the world we live in. There are so many interesting behaviors, chemical pathways, beautiful animals, who are going to be gone forever.
I don't think he stomped on all of them...
Nah but this kind of dismissive attitude definitely leads to extinctions.
Lol
They should have thought about that before my chips
Fuck birds. They had their chance 65 million years ago.
Plus they keep pooping on my car.
