It's better to not feed bread to corvids or waterfoul. Corvids get very few nutrients out of bread and possibe digestion problems. Peanuts and dry cat food are a good alternative. Feeding waterfoul is actually banned in a lot of places because specifically bread makes them have diarrhea, which creates too much algae in closeby waters, killing fish.

yeah, I understand that completely and would never feed bread to any birds. it’s a very popular park, and although it has a lot of information tables about what food people should and shouldn’t give to ducks, lot of them still bring bread :(
