Pull the other one.....!!

Living so close to the coast I've seen my fair share and more of  seagulls standing on one leg and wondered what the possible reasons for this could be...nibbled by something nasty in the water, quite possibly... cut off by a boating mishap, conceivably... but after Googling (yeh I know.....!!) it would seem that perhaps not so many as observed may be of the single limb set!! Apparently at times it can be as simple as the bird drawing its leg up into its 'down feathers' to warm it up a bit on a chilly day, if only there was such a simple solution to the more complicated of life's problems. "Pull your leg up Mate, it's all good.....!!"
