Nearly a fortnight after Little Darwin reported that a large dead bird was up against the Victory in the Pacific memorial fountain , the body is still in the same precinct , not far from the bus shelter , below . Also in the fountain is rubbish seen weeks ago , along with some more .
At the same time as the obvious neglect of the fountain and surrounds, on what is inappropriately named the Civic Pride Trail , leaves were building up along part of the waterfront Coral Sea Battle memorial in Anzac Park , below , which includes the names of Japanese and Allied vessels involved in the fierce battle . Both these memorials are national shrines and deserve daily attention.
Anybody at home in the Townsville City Council , RSL , Navy League , Australian War Memorial , Townsville Port Authority , Townsville Enterprise , political circles and local media ? More on Townsville neglect upcoming .
