Residents weren’t ‘lovin’ it’ after a picture of birds feeding on a delivery outside McDonald’s did the rounds on social media.

Stock had to be discarded after the ‘shocking’ image was shared widely on Facebook – showing birds feeding on a delivery of food sitting outside the Ayr branch of the fast food giant.

A McDonald’s spokesperson said: “Hygiene and safety are our absolute priority. We are aware of the situation that took place yesterday during the delivery process and all affected stock was immediately discarded.”
