Bird flu

Bird flu seems to be spreading through north Puget Sound waterfowl. Recently the media reports that 400 geese had died at Wiser Lake (Whatcom County north of Bellingham) some of which tested positive for bird flu. Every day more and more "sick" snow geese are showing up on Fir Island (Skagit County).

The number of bald eagles have drop dramatically on Fir Island in the last week or so -hopefully they did not get the "flu"

Be sure and bag and seal the each carcass after your hunt. A simple heavy bag that is tied off will work. Big time bummer.
