PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE DUCKS AND GEESE
Spring is the air and this lovely weather has many of us visiting our community parks and ponds. It can be tempting to feed the ducks as geese as many of us have grown up thinking that this was an environmentally responsible and humane way to dispose of old or stale bread. However, feeding ducks and geese is actually unhealthy and potentially dangerous for the birds. This seemingly generous act, in fact, can be extremely harmful.
-
Duckling malnutrition - in areas where ducks are regularly fed bread the ducklings will not receive adequate nutrition for proper growth and development.
- Overcrowding - Where food is easy to come by, ducks and other waterfowl will lay more eggs and the pond or lake will become overcrowded. This makes it more difficult for the birds to seek out healthier food sources and increases territorial aggression, especially during mating season. It will also cause ducks to cross busy streets in search of food.
- Pollution - What happens to all that bread that is not eaten? It causes algae growths, pollution and can eventually eradicate fish and other life in the vicinity.
- Diseases - A diet rich in carbohydrates leads to greater fecal production and bird feces easily harbors bacteria responsible for numerous diseases including avian botulism.
- Attraction of pests - Rotting leftover food attracts other unwelcome pests such as rats, mice and insects. These pests can also harbor additional diseases that can be dangerous to humans.
If you care about ducks and geese, do not feed them. They can live longer, healthier lives by relying on natural food sources such as aquatic plants, seeds, grasses and insects rather than taking handouts from will-meaning humans. Now that you know, you can help by not feeding the ducks and geese and by educating other duck lovers.
CRIME PREVENTION TIPS AND LINKS
Please remember to lock your car doors. Also, if you see anything suspicious, please call the Constables right away. Even if it turns out to be nothing, they would rather check it out to keep the neighborhood safe. Every now and again, something that people may think is nothing, has actually turned into something.

The first is for the Vacation Watch. When the residents leave for vacation, they can fill out the form and as part of their normal duties, the Constables will drive by and check on their residence.
