Birds feast on leftovers at hawker centre

 Birds feast on leftovers at hawker centre
These birds were having a ball of a time feasting on leftovers at the Bendemeer Hawker Centre.

The plates and bowls were left uncleared for a long time, attracting the birds.

STOMPer Loh finds this unhygienic as the birds could spread harmful germs.

The STOMPer says:

"Dining with birds.

"All are welcome at Blk 29 Bendemeer Hawker Centre."

If the person who submitted this was trying to make a statement, I don't quite see it. Unless his last sentence was a poor attempt at being sarcastic.

Still, this is essentially a people problem, one caused by leaving leftovers uncleared, providing birds like these feral pigeons (Columba livia) an opportunity to swoop in and scavenge on whatever edible tidbits remain.
