Where are the Baby Seagulls?

Have you ever seem baby seagulls? Seriously. Where are they?
I never even thought about seagulls being born they were just there. You know the birds you see flying around a McDonald's or sometimes at the beach.
Well i saw them on sunday. They are the cutest thing ever. But their placement was strange. Downtown demolished a building so the lot was vacant with weeds growing with big leaves and random sprouts of grass. And there they all were. Adults were just laying there. And all different size babies were walking around. Playing with some garbage they found. The littlest ones i saw were 3 siblings all sleeping under a large leaf of a weed. One couldn't find a spot so it kept waking up and walking around to another side. Finally it went to sleep on one of the other babies.
This same one tried to itch its ear with it's foot and he slid down. He must have done this 3 times. Another one was bigger and was trying to fly to follow its siblings and mother (what i assumed was its mother) It hopped up and down and flapped it's wings. well the outline of wings. All of them were just puff balls. The older ones only had less 'puff.'

Sorry Would Have Provided PICTURES but i couldnt get them on the page. TEARS!!!
