Bird Flu in Canada?
A story I heard on the CBC radio about Australia complaining about imported pigeons from Canada having Bird Flu antibodies got me thinking about another story I saw on TV fairly recently.
The TV story was about the massive losses that hobbyists were experiencing this year in their flock of homing pigeons. Apparently this year a massive number of birds have gone out and never returned to their home. People do not have any idea where the birds are ending up or why their internal homing instincts are not working.
It could be that Global Warming is causing it, that their internal magnetic compass suddenly points to a new magnetic pole, or that they are infected with Avian Flu. I wonder what is going on?
