All this strikes me as odd, when compared with the other discussion held
some time ago along the lines of people doing annoying things with dogs
and having dogs running free (sometimes on the issue of disturbing birds
such as waterbirds / waders and other wildlife). The complaint then was
that no one official seems to bother them. Here we have complaints
(seemingly legitimate) of over officiousness against people innocently
bird watching. Maybe bird watchers (or people loitering suspiciously
with optical equipment) are a greater nuisance to the general public
than what we might think of as rogue dogs. Or are we making a bit much
of isolated incidents and paranoid officials?
