Found a dead male Annas this morning which left me with questions.
Sitting on top of a rabbit feeding station, it looked healthy, but was
soaked by the rain and had died sometime in the previous 12 hours.
Note: It was not particularly cold last night, so I do not believe
weather was a factor.
Questions:
Have there been verified reports of hummingbirds catching Avian
influenza ("AI")?
Have people suspended feeding hummingbirds (and other wild birds for
that matter)?
Have there been other reports in Tweeters possibly related to AI that I
have missed?
