But it did not get either of his 99 flakes on Brighton Pier on Wednesday.
Mum Kasia, 38, said: “We probably should know better what those birds are capable of. He wasn’t impressed!”

She posted the funny snaps online and floods of people praised her photography skills and Hugo’s bravery.
“What an amazing shot,” said Carol Exall.
Jacqueline Cannon agreed: "What are the chances of catching this action shot!”
