That is the point that Predatormc is making.
The story seems to be, the first predator (peregrine falcon) attacked the seagul, got it to earth and was half way through finishing it off when the second, bigger meaner predator showed up and scared the peregrine off. Presumably the bigger bird then dined on the rapidly expiring gull.

I'm still amazed that the gull is standing. It's neck has been savaged, yet apparently the crucial blood vessels are intact. I guess Steven isn't the only tough Seagull about...
