Seagulls photobomb London traffic camera

A pair of seagulls photobombed traffic cameras in London to the delight of the internet.

“Graeme” and “Steve,” as they have been named, have appeared in several posts on the Transport for London Twitter feed.

TfL kicked off the week with a “Happy Monday …” post that included a photo of a seagull hovering above traffic at a junction near the Blackwall Tunnel in Poplar, East London, according to the Daily Mail.

The TfL followed up with a post on Tuesday, “Guess who’s back?!” and a video of the seagull.

On Wednesday TfL gave a shout-out to both seagulls, which they named Graeme and Steve:

Our cameras usually give us a bird’s eye view of traffic across London, but we’d like to thank our new colleagues Graeme and Steve for helping out at beak times. pic.twitter.com/lsIDhD8nL2

You're so gullible to take the A102 Blackwall Tunnel today. Make the right caw, and wing it over to the next bridge. https://t.co/hVuKOkeBgE

"Well, Dave, as you can see it's starting to busy up here. Best to wing it on an alternative route if you can." https://t.co/8Dt2jlm3Pz
