Woman captures perfect photo of a seagull brazenly stealing a lobster roll right out of her hand

Beware the seagulls of Maine for they take what they want -- especially if it's a lobster roll.

That was the lesson learned by Alicia Jessop, who was simply trying to take a photo of a delicious lobster roll she was eating for lunch during a visit to Maine. A thieving-ass seagull had other ideas and swooped in to nab the sandwich away from her. Well, at least she got one hell of a photo for her troubles.

Jessop tweeted on Friday that she was trying to line up the perfect Maine photo -- lobster roll in the foreground, lighthouse in the background -- when the attack came from above and the happenstance of timing gave her this one perfect snap.
