Has anyone stumbled across any O scale seagulls?
I've tried all of the usual suppliers and drawn a blank.
Cheers

Model Tech Studios has them in O. Also in S scale. Thought I had seen them on their site. I just gave them a look now. They aren't listed in figures. I just did a site search and found them.
Thanks, Dave.
The search button didn't work for me. I'll have another go.
I went through Google and found them.
They don't look too good in the photo. Has anyone bought them?
Model Tech is the only source that I'm aware of, but there is the Scenery section of this forum that has a source list posted at the top that might prove useful and/or you might also inquire within that section.
I seem to remember getting some from Arttista a while back.
There is an excellent seagull maker in the UK. I will try to help. Google seagulls UK. Langley online:

Type in search: L28p. Those are the painted version with five birds, three flying, two standing. I have some and they are white metal.
All of these are from Artista. Some are gulls (1566), some are pigeons (#1212). I bent a few wings and posed them in different orientations to hide that there are only three of each type
Thanks, guys. I don't know why I have so much trouble with Search boxes. It might be some geo block.
That Scenery Source List is very good.
Sirt,
Those are great!
They are.
Any chance of a close up?

Probably the most useful information on this entire forum.
Definitely the most interesting on the forum, and absolutely no mention of 3R.
I like it, JP.
A seagull with attitude.
It's very kind that you give them some food!
Très belle photo!

John S. when do Bialystock and Blume arrive at the coop?
Thanks, SIRT. Great photos! Especially the last one with the sunken wreck.
I hope to have some flying ones once I get the build to the stage where I'm not leaning over the layout, damaging stuff.
Why do the call them seagulls and not WalmartParkingLot Gulls?
In Oz it's heresy to call them other than silver gulls.
Nah. It's just a bad camera angle, Simon.
I've finished painting the grey bits now, so they all look a bit better.
Max, I was just pulling your leg or maybe I should say your bird's leg! I'm sure anything I tried to do, the resemblance to a seagull would be purely coincidental!
Simon
I thought that was the case, Simon.
Fortunately they are still small enough in O scale to pass the three foot rule.
