It is such a lovely area its the one I go too most often here, most of the city locals take a lot of pride in our city and beaches and keep them clean, most mornings when I go to catch the sunrise I see a couple of ladies regularly who walk the beach picking up any trash they see, and I do usually carry a small plastic bag with me to pick up any trash I see and am glad to say most time sits not much, but the car park sometimes get messy I think it may be those reasons or they just don't think or don't care :(
A long lens is on my wish list, but not sure if I will ever get it most birding photographers I know go sit in a spot where they know theres a good chance to see birds and sit and wait patiently till they arrive and to get the shot, I am too hyper to stand still in one spot for long lOL
