This is the moment a woman tried to get an arty social media photo of her doughnut at the seaside - only to film a seagull swiping it from her hand.Emmie Holdrick, 29, was trying to get a shot of her snack in front at Paignton Beach, Devon, when it was snatched right out of her hand.The nurse and mum captured the hilarious moment on her phone as she held out the doughnut ready for a tasteful picture for her social media.But the hungry gull had other ideas as he swooped in to become the accidental subject of the photo on November 19.Emmie said: "I was just trying to get a nice photo for Instagram when it happened, I didn't realise that iPhone photos move and when I got home I noticed I caught the whole thing on camera!"It made me feel hungry but I wasn't shocked as it's not the first time a seagull has stolen my food! "There are always lots of seagulls hovering around the beach especially where people are eating fish, chips and doughnuts- I should know better, being a local!"Luckily we bought five doughnuts for £3 so I did manage to eat one or two. "The seagulls here are so brazen!"
