If you feed birds in a park in the UK and the birds leave ANY of the food behind (bread, birdseed, nuts, whatever), you can be fined £150 for littering.

The phrase 'sent to Coventry' originated during the English Civil War, when captured Royalists were imprisoned in the heavily fortified and strongly pro-Parliament city. They were given a hard time by the local people.

Woman Loses Appeal Against Bird Feeding Fine
Quote:A woman who was fined £150 for feeding birds at a Derby beauty spot has lost an appeal against the charge.
Jenna Summers said she was left "disgusted" after being issued with the fine for littering in the city's River Gardens on 31 May.
The 37-year-old, from Oakwood in Derby, challenged the penalty arguing signs about the ban on bird feeding were unclear.
However the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) said Derby City Council had now rejected the appeal.
Quote:A spokesperson for Derby City Council said it could not comment on individual cases.
However, it said: “It is an offence to drop litter anywhere in the city, which includes leftover food from feeding birds."

I'm having an issue with 'leftover'.
