Good morning to all from Belleville, Illinois where it will be a warm but very windy day. The temperature is expected to reach 80 degrees today.
The State of Illinois Health Dept. put out a press release stating that Illinois residents are being urged to stop using bird feeders and bird baths to help slow the spread of avian flu. The release went on to give tips about how to properly clean feeders and bird baths. Apparently at this time of year birds don't have any trouble finding food or water in nature, so feeding them is not a necessity at present.
I'm curious to know if there are any notifications like this in other parts of the country.
