A bricklayer says he “lives in fear” because an aggressive “demon” seagull attacks him every time he gets home.<br /><br />Calum Gow is terrorised by the feathered menace which has been nesting on his roof for two weeks.<br /><br />The 25-year-old and his family have to scamper to safety from the angry bird.<br /><br />Calum said: “It has probably been swooping on us for two weeks.<br /><br />“It was going for my brother to start with and then it saw me with him and I was getting it as well.<br /><br />“It goes for anyone who walks past.<br /><br />“I wouldn’t say it’s scary. It’s more funny than anything because you have to run away from it.”<br />Calum, from Glasgow, filmed a standoff between him and the gull.<br /><br />In a hilarious clip, the brickie sits in his car dreading the short walk to his house knowing he will have to face his winged nemesis.<br /><br />The Scot says: “Fing big thing is just waiting on that chimney, waiting on me to get out the motor so it can fing swoop down on us. F***ing daftie man.” When Calum reaches the middle of the road, the gull swoops down on him as he nears his home.<br />The bird narrowly misses his head as it tries to stop him from getting to the house.<br /><br />Calum then sprints to his door and can be heard hysterically laughing, before saying: “Oh my God, that f***ing came in the house.”<br />This comes as earlier in the month it was reported a psycho seagull boom is on the way ­because the pandemic has stopped officials applying for licences to destroy their eggs.<br /><br />Councils usually coat the shells with a liquid paraffin oil to stop the inner embryo from developing, which effectively sterilises them.<br /><br />But there is currently a delay in licences for gull control being granted by Natural England.<br />
