But They’re Such Fun to Feed!

Most park authorities prohibit the feeding of waterfowl. Here’s why: Human food is junk food to waterfowl, with none of the nutrients they need. Undernourished birds are more susceptible to disease. Feeding entices waterfowl to overwinter, which means more breeding pairs and an ever-increasing number of ducks and geese in our lakes. Waterfowl waste contains parasites that cause swimmer’s itch, an allergic rash you wouldn’t wish on anyone. Clean water means more swimming beaches. Waterfowl waste not only pollutes, it also fertilizes aquatic weeds that choke out other plants and animals. You can’t swim or fish in a choked lake.
