Map of Fife showing location of Bird Flu SwanSome how this Swan has made it to Scotland from god knows where and landed in or around the Fife area. They haven't found any other cases in the surrounding areas which is good news.
I wonder how many dead birds with H5 are currently lying unnoticed in the swans flight path. (Or dead foxes as a result of a freebie meal).
