The Eurasian Kestrel found at Pak Tin Estate was the 10th case of a bird found with H5N1 this year.
This location is within 1km of Mong Kong Bird Market. This is the 8th case out of 10, and once again fits the pattern of either being a released cagebird or a predator which would feed on sick or injured birds.
When will the Government start to take this seriously?
