Just had a letter from SHU and Scottish Executive ...ALL FIFE BIRDS MUST BE KEPT IN AS OF THE 6TH OF APRIL. It ALSO INCLUDES DUNDEE< ANGUS AND STONEHAVEN WITHIN THE WILD BIRD RISK ZONE IF NO OTHER OUTBREAKS MAY BE LIFTED IN 30 DAYS. They CANNOT BE ALLOWED OUT TO EXERCISE

JUST HAD AN E-MAIL FROM PETER BRYANT SAYING THAT FROM NOW AMTRAK WILL NOT BE PICKING UP OR DELIVERING BIRDS IN THE RESTRICTED AREA UNTILL FURTHER NOTICE.

It`s just one big con....it`s the WILD birds that got it,not our racers,it`s one big joke,the defra can`t organize a wild bird cull,because the general public,and those do gooders will be up in arms,even if they could,not many people have shotgun certs anymore cause they are to expensive,used to be £8 for 3 years.

agree with you ben,its just a good excuse to involve racing pigeons,if there is so much concern about pigeons catching it then why isnt there a big cull in towns and cities were theres loads of stray pigeons.Just think there taking the p*ss out of us pigeon men.

I AGREE THERE SHOULD BE A CULL OF WILD BIRDS AS THEY ARE GETTING OVER POPULTED, AND ARE THE SOARSE OF BRINGING IN THE VIRUS AND SPREADING IT, IF SOME FARMERS CHICKENS GET IT HE WILL BE MADE TO CULL ALL HIS BIRDS SO WHY DOES WILD BIRDS GET AWAY WITH IT. ARE THEY MORE IMPORTANT TO THE PUBLIC THAN HEALTH AND THE POULTRY INDUSTRY./ AND WHY ARE THERE SO MANY WILD BIRDS LYING ABOUT THE COUNTRY DEAD, I THOUGHT THE RSPB WAS LOOKING AFTER WILD BIRDS,
