Further to my piece upon feeding ducks upon the river (Do not feed the animals and other nonsense) dated August 5th, I received a very interesting comment from an interested party (unfortunately listed as anonymous so I cannot thank them directly for the comment - rather than publish the comment I chose to do some research and expand it in this piece).
