Mrs Coton - has been feeding the birds in her garden for 20 years. Can you believe, that she was warned:
"that she could face legal action from her local council if she does not
desist from feeding the "feral" birds.
Officials said that a neighbour had complained that her "overfeeding" had led to large groups of birds congregating on the street creating "environmental" problems and
damaging property.
Coventry City Council said it was considering serving an abatement notice - similar to orders given to neighbours who play loud music late at night - to curtail her bird feeding. If she fails to comply she could be prosecuted..."

Oh dear, it seems like crazy neighbours exist just about everywhere. Sometimes I wished I lived in a community but when I read stuff like this I feel grateful that I have no neighbours!
This is truly political correctness gone mad! Those silly Public Servants need to be reminded that's exactly what their job is - to serve the interests of the public & they are certainly not doing that!!

It is a good thing I don't live in her neighborhood. I would be prosecuted too. Cute pictures of the Blue tits bathing.
