"I had no clue he was headed my way, because I was trying to get the correct angle with the lighthouse."It only takes a second for pigeons to pounce, and this one did. "The jerk swooped in on me and snatched my lobster roll!" she said. "A lady was videotaping the whole scene from her car."Despite being pilfered by the pigeon, Jessop was determined to enjoy a Maine lobster roll!"$43 and one seagull attack later, I am now enjoying my first lobster roll at Fox’s Lobster House in York, Maine," Jessop wrote.
