Chicken feet have been showing up on the lawns, decks and front step of yards in Calgary’s Ramsay Park neighbourhood and residents say they are fed up. After some investigation, homeowners now believe the chicken feet are falling from the sky and are blaming the nearby Lilydale poultry plant. "They have this giant loading bin filled up with chicken parts and it’s wide open on top," said Todd Keating. "The magpies think it’s a free-for-all. They fly over Ramsay and they drop them on the ground. Then I come home and I shake my fist." "It shouldn’t be happening," said neighbour Todd Ford, who has had chicken parts appear on his property four times. "The magpie population is out of control." No one from Lilydale could be reached for comment. An official with Calgary’s bylaw department says the city will look into the matter. http://www.herald.ns.ca/Canada/527803.html Partager ce message Lien à poster Partager sur d’autres sites
