Comments

A group of south Asian people were having a picnic with both food and drink. They were feeding the birds both intentionally and unintentionally. A rice dish was dumped on the ground which Sherlock took quite a liking to and the birds were also pulling food, sugar, and tea out of bags and dishes. Photos can be found on my eBird checklist (https://ebird.org/checklist/S282427945) and I can provide additional photos and if it would be helpful to the project.
