I have just seen the distressing sight of Swans that have contracted Avian Flu and dying.
The symptoms are recognised by the bird paddling around in circles!

It is a Notifiable Disease

If you witness such events in Swans or other Waterfowl while you are out fishing then call DEFRA
to inform them where the affected birds are.

DO NOT TOUCH OR PICK UP ANY DEAD OR VISIBLY SICK BIRDS

I saw a dead one come floating down the L.Sev at the weekend. A few other of the LS crowd have seen dead swans also.
