I haven't been actively installing feeders this winter with bird flu outbreaks in our rural area, but decided to put out a seed cylinder for the holiday. This resulted in a common, but new bird for me: a Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker.

Oh no! My beloved dinosaur, the cassowary, has been kicked to the curb, once again unfairly out of the running for the Guardian's bird of the year comp. 😭🦖
Looks like it's now up to my favourite chorister, the magpie, once again.

Content warning: interesting piece on the evidence that bird flu is airborne
"At the vast majority of egg farms, he said, infections started with chickens close to air inlets and on upper levels, far from where virus tracked in on shoes and clothes would end up. ...
"After the virus spilled into nearby Indiana, the state’s head of avian health began to notice a pattern: If a farm had an outbreak and the wind was blowing hard that day, she could expect to hear news about another farm needing to test dead hens five to seven days later. ...
"[In France] vaccinating and regularly testing the ducks cost $120 million after the first year, compared with the $1.6 billion the disease response cost in the outbreaks in 2021 and 2022."
