I was there on Saturday morning....and watched a gaggle of geese pick at garbage left by the nearly homeless entourage right next to the Library. Made me so angry, I decided to do something about it and just clean up the mess with a bucket; because wildlife don't deserve a slow agonizing death from consuming foreign objects and trash. Also found a glass crack/meth pipe in the creek...just for my troubles.

Edit: Decided to do another cleanup next weekend (10am, Feb 11th). Talk is cheap...so will let the pics speak.
