Hi Cog forum members
Thousands of juvenile Budgerigars and Zebra
Finches are reported to have died in a heat wave in WA, following a huge
breeding season, late last year.
The location is 200 Km south of
Carnarvon.
There may be more to this story, eg,
possible pollution of water, as turned out to be the real issue, in a
similar "event" in Albany last year, which turned out to be lead poisoning from
dust from ore being transported to the Port of Albany.
Some of the images of piles of dead birds
may be disturbing to some readers.
There are also images of thousands of live
birds, which are reminiscent of the old images of the Rabbit plagues.
Equally amazing.
Follow this link - if you wish to view the
slide show - 11 images.
Cheers
