Staying at Leeds castle, unfortunately bird flu has decimated the water fowl numbers here and the peacocks died from the stress of being locked up. Did see a kestrel hunting on the grounds though this morning.
bleak. heard that bird flu was on the rise again.
last summer I rescued a canary that had landed on our patio, gave it to one of my daughter's school friends who has some caged birds. got a text a week later that it had died and so had their budgies.
