The unalloyed joy of a trip to Disneyland has been tarnished for a group of 17 people, including six children, who were showered by bird droppings thanks to a passing flock of geese.
A hazardous materials team were called to the theme park in California, which bills itself as the happiest place on earth, after reports that faeces had been thrown on people.
It was quickly determined the real culprit was a flock of geese flying overhead.
Anaheim police and fire officials said the unlucky tourists were hit by bird droppings just before 9pm on Friday.

With @AnaheimFire at Disney - NO crime occurred - guests hit with fecal matter- appears to be geese that flew over. No injuries

Authorities say the visitors were taken to a private bathroom to clean up and were given clean clothes.
Police reported that the guests were “healthy and happy” after the event.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading the Guardian than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. And unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. The Guardian’s independent, investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our perspective matters – because it might well be your perspective, too.
I appreciate there not being a paywall: it is more democratic for the media to be available for all and not a commodity to be purchased by a few. I’m happy to make a contribution so others with less means still have access to information.Thomasine F-R.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps to support it, our future would be much more secure.
