Dead birds

I don't think I've ever seen so many.

Lots of dead seagulls out and about on the roads, and in my garden there's been 3 dead birds in the garden this summer already, a sparrow, some kind of tit and a ****ing massive woodpecker - never even seen one of those previously - and it almost landed on the mrs as it just dropped dead out of the sky.

What's going on here then?

Bird flu?
5G mobile masts cooking their brains?
A portent of the forthcoming Armageddon?

There are crows and magpies around that chase the smaller birds but I don't think any of these were down to that

There is a massive outbreak of bird flu amongst wild birds. I've never seen so many dead myself this year.
Best keep your budgy in its cage. 😀

loads of fecking pigeons and magpies round our way eating everything they can and making an awful noise. they'd not be missed if they croaked.

Not noticed many dead birds up my way - but I have noticed all the rabbits have disappeared!

Seagulls eat flying ants this time of year which makes them pissed hence why so many are seen dead

I just looked that up as I wasn't sure if it was true.
Wow.
