Visitors to Spalding town centre are being urged not to feed the pigeons.
South Holland District Council has installed a number of signs in Hall Place asking people not to feed the pigeons.
A post on the council's social media page stated: "SHDC has installed new signage in Hall Place in Spalding to discourage visitors and shoppers from feeding pigeons there.
"Food on the ground attracts more than just birds to the town centre, including rats, and can create an environmental health risk."
