Your local Vet., asking if it's possible that it's bird 'flu? 

I take mammals to the Vets as they require proper euthanisation if necessary, birds we can deal with.

Why not?  For all the birds that we see poorly there will be many more who die in the undergrowth, naturally.  1 can't save the World.  If something is obviously suffering that's a different matter.

Yep.  ? Greek?   I thought that I replied last night  :-\.  It seems to have disappeared?


Taz - advice on keeping the areas clean under the feeders please.  I move the nut holders etc. regularly - I bought 2 more metal stands yesterday and fixed those in a different place - do U use a disinfectant on the ground at all?

Many years ago we did.  1 cannabis plant from the bird seed grew in-between the patio slabs.  Jokingly I kept telling everyone that we had a cannabis plant, when it flowered and I looked it up in the poisons book, it was  ;D.  We set fire to it so that it didn't spread .........

I will need to look up Shoo-fly plant - sounds South African?
