I live beside a small pond, owned by the town. For the last six years, the powers that be, place "Feed the ducks" signs, all around the pond. I have been before the town council several times requesting that they remove the signs, due to the nuisance caused by people trespassing through my yard and duck droppings. It’s a big ongoing joke around here. Even the local radio station is getting in on the act, Every morning at 7 AM, right after the news, they have started playing a recording of hundreds of ducks quacking, followed by a series of loud splats.

I have taken photos of the damage caused by the duck droppings, but the powers that be don’t seem to care. My attorney suggested taking pictures of the mayor’s home and auto, and somehow covering them with duck droppings. Then at the next council meeting, I could ask the mayor how he would like being subjected to a constant bird barrage.

That gave me the idea to use a plugin.

If anyone knows of anything I could use for this purpose, I would be greatly appreciative if you would post the information in this forum.

Failing this action, I may have to run against the s.o.b. come this fall.

TIA

All the procedures I can think of, I’m afraid, would be very messy. —

Hey…I like it…collect the droppings and take them to the mayors house. I used to weed wack at a cemetery that had a lake…and the whacker would splatter goose and mudhen droppings all over the place….and all over us. You have my sympathy! What does your lawyer say about suing the city for damage to your property? Their behavior is making the problem worse.

I’m sure that some developer is working on this, maybe for Eye Candy…

You’d do best with just taking some digital shots of the droppings, and placing them on a Layer above the Background of the Mayor’s whatever. You can use the Liquify Filter to adjust the shapes of your images on the upper Layer. Just Flatten and you have it. Much easier than looking for a Plug-in, I’d venture.

I suggest your final statement. If it’s a joke to everyone, they obviously don’t give a shit (pun intended) about your property, or understand property rights. It’s not like you’re suggesting poisoning the pond to kill all the ducks….

Otherwise, maybe you could make them "understand" the problem with droppings when you scoop them up, put them in a bag, and toss it on the mayor’s doorstep. After a couple of time, he might get the hint.
