We’re huge fans of Twitter here in the Her.ie offices, with one or two more prolific tweeters than others. However it isn’t just tweeting that we love, it’s the retweeting too.
One account that has us favouriting and retweeting posts is Dublin Seagulls – yes, you read that correctly.
Seagulls – known to many as ‘gulls’ or ‘flying rats’, are taking over Dublin’s fair city and this week has upped the ante.
The feathered ‘revolution’ kicked off just three days ago and already has almost 500 followers.
With a bio line that simply reads, “In feathers we trust”, and speak from the beak that cuts straight to the bone, Dublin Seagulls are quite simply ‘the shit’. If you’re not already following, we’d suggest you do so now.
Here are just a few tweets to showcase their finest work and what you can expect from the account.
The revolution is coming #DublinSeagulls

@JOEdotie that’s how the people of Dublin make us feel like every day. Not for long though, the city will be ours.
