Scattering birdseed in a public place constituted "litter"/"discarding" within the statutory definitions; the act would likely attract birds and create hygiene and nuisance risks so was lawfully prohibited; the appellant's cultural or belief claims did not outweigh the statutory public health objective. The evidence and reasoning supported conviction beyond reasonable doubt.
