Hope it's not the start of a bigger picture

Some blue/snow flocks here had round of it or something similar five or six years back, but it didn't become widespread.

That's interesting. Haven't heard about it in class. Diseases like that, especially with waterfowl, have a tendency to freak the poultry industry the fuck out.

This is interesting as with the amount of rain-fall this area has had , those birds had to come from a drought stricken area .
The Pacific West comes to mind as the water issue here has become dire , with very little help from Mother nature . With all
the Nut Trees , Grapes and Potato farming going on in this area.....there's just no water for migrating birds as , Big Corp businesses
are making sure of that !
