Andy and Judith are very fond of their garden birds and Andy has forwarded this warning about Trichomonosis:
This is a horrible disease that appears to be impacting on the bird population in the village. We have had a number of sick birds and the only way to eradicate it is for us all to stop feeding the birds for a few weeks. I have spoken to Garden Wildlife Health and they pointed me to this document (click to open in new window).
One thought on “Trichomonosis in Garden Birds”
This is very sad news. I’ve not noticed anything at my feeding table but will watch now and if so I will stop feeding for 2 weeks as suggested. Let’s hope this works. Please keep us posted. Thanks for warning.
