WHO are the morons who shot a pair of swans on the Lucky Hollow pond in Orchard Lane, Leigh?
What harm do these beautiful creatures do anyone?
This pair of swans had been resident for several months looking for a nesting place. How low and mean of these half-wits to commit this outrage and shoot these nearly tame birds who were trusting enough to come close to humans.
Another simpleton took the trouble to leave a divan, door, mattress, carpet, Christmas tree and two bags of refuse at the side of Orchard Lane. Why, when there is a tip at Plank Lane and another at Hindsford?
A phone call to Wigan Metro Cleansing Department would have solved the problem for them.
Shame upon those shooters and flytippers.
Lots of people are disgusted, so am I!
