Feeding Wild Birds

[TOMTE]

I don't think anyone has indicated that conclusion.

Here?

All cases of the Avian Flu have been spread by wild birds especially waterfowl.

Avian flu is controlled in domestic flocks by destruction of the domestic flocks leaving no domestic birds to spread the disease. There is no such control over wild birds leaving them as the only source of the disease.

Perhaps a separate thread about this subject would be a good idea?

Maybe, though my original post didn't exactly pertain to this tangent... I don't know if you read the entire conversation or my original post in this thread, but to me it seems like something was misunderstood along the way? Or am I inferring too much from your post in another thread? Because I was just exploring all avenues on the topic, I'm open to level discussion and correction when I'm wrong. Either way, I'm fine with leaving it here.

Almost 3 weeks since I've seen White Bird. She's not using her usual perches. Instead she is in the ridge to the North of the club. Further away and harder to locate even with her color.

Bluebird sort of sky here with moderate winds. I watched White Bird and a turkey buzzard navigate the air currents for about 15 minutes, and then the intruders appeared.

The ridge to the North of the club is already 85% devoid of leaves. Yesterday's wind and the drought are responsible. Weather guesser is saying no rain until the second week in Nov.

Someone was not satisfied with waiting for dropped BOSS.
