Are you part of Canberra’s bird menace?

TERRITORY and Municipal Services have unleashed another video, this time on the unremitting menace of bird feeding in our fair town.

Heaven forfend we ever have anything like Trafalgar Square.

It can be really tempting to feed birds, but remember, what goes in must come out.
Human food, like bread, is bad for birds’ digestive systems
They begin to see humans as a food source
Which can increase their numbers in urban areas significantly
And the chance of disease spreading, climbs.
If you’ve ever been to Trafalgar Square, you’ll know what we’re trying to avoid.
Let’s keep the bush capital beautiful
So please, don’t feed the birds.
