In a world where everything is serious all the time it’s important to take a break now and then to laugh at things that are truly ridiculous. And that’s where this “curry seagull” comes in.

Last week, the wonderful folks at Tiggywinkles Animal Hospital (real name) in the United Kingdom posted an image of a stunning golden bird to their Facebook page. According to the group, the bird was spotted and found on the side of the road as it couldn’t fly away. Though upon first sight the bird appeared to be a rare species, or perhaps an entirely new one altogether. But nope, it wasn’t. Instead, it was a common seagull who somehow found itself covered in yellow curry.
