Don't bet on it.


The media will have a field day.


It will be the end of the world for at least a week.

I saw something on the front of the Star this morning in the newsagents.  It said 'wild swan found dead in Scotland.'  The term wild swan tends to refer to the winter visiting species to UK Cygnus colombianus bewicki and C. cygnus. The bird pictured was clearly a C. olor our 'common' swan we see all year round.  So not sure of the veracity of this report. Of course hundreds of birds die every day.  Just because a bird has died doesn't mean it has bird flu.  We'll see.

According to this morning's news the swan was actually found over a week ago. Bird flu has been confirmed but there are various types and it has not yet been confirmed if it is the H5N1 strain.
