OK, maybe I'm hormonal or something, but this has really upset me.
We have a small lake just a block from where I live (storm water run off, made into a nice lake). Houses back on to the lake on one side, and there is a footpath on the other side, and lots of people like to walk there.
Last year, we had two families of Canada geese that raised 11 goslings between them, and we were so happy that the 4 adults returned this year, and had another 11 babies between them. Unfortunately, when I went today, there was a sign up, saying some "Sour person had complained about the wildlife, and all had been removed and euthanised". All those babies (who were getting quite big now) and their devoted parents - gone!
Today, there is a pair of Grebes who have just had 3 babies, and I'm afraid whoever complained before will get them removed as well . Sometimes, I hate people ssd:
