Trash Talk: My Quest for a Cleaner Village

Before the snow arrived, I did initially go out for a walk searching for fungi. Unfortunately, there wasn't much about but I thought this was perfect for Hive account@friendlymoose's #POBPhotocontest. The theme for this week is #trash. I was walking down a narrow footpath and it was sad to see the litter there. I did pick the bottle up, though, and placed it in the litter bin. Unfortunately, before I could find a bin, I had to walk through the village with the bottle in my hand. It looked as though I'd been on the booze very early in the morning!

A few days later, the snow arrived. It's very cold, so everywhere is still iced over. In the village, we have a sports cage for people to play basketball and football in. Unfortunately, the users don't always take their litter away with them.

I tried pulling the bottle up, but it wouldn’t budge. The ice had formed a tight grip around it, almost like it was holding on for dear life. I ended up giving it a good kick, which did the trick!

There's actually a litter bin just outside the cage, but they still can't be bothered to throw their litter in it. Sticking it in the wire fencing is so much better, don't you think??
