    H5N1 confirmed in black-headed gulls near Dromineer

    The Department of Agriculture has issued an advisory following the discovery of bird flu in a number of sick and dead birds near Dromineer.

Members of the public can contribute to HPAI surveillance by notifying the department of the location of sick or dead wild birds using the department’s Avian Check App.

    It is understood that as many as 50 dead birds have been found in the Dromineer vicinity since the beginning of this year.

    “A notification was received in early March on the department’s Avian Check App in relation to sick and dead black-headed gulls on the shores of Lough Derg, close to Dromineer,” the Department of Agriculture stated. ”The department’s Regional Veterinary Office followed up this notification and Avian Influenza of the H5N1 subtype has been confirmed in these wild birds. In the past 12 months, there have been more than 90 wild birds with H5N1 HPAI detected nationally...

              Bird flu detected in four northern Ireland areas as keepers urged to step up safety measures

              Friday, 9 June 2023
              Niamh Campbell

              Northern Ireland’s chief vet has called on all bird and poultry keepers to immediately step up their biosecurity measures after Avian Influenza was detected in four locations across NI.

              The Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) received confirmation that Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) was found in samples of dead black headed gulls, which were reported and subsequently collected for testing at Belfast Harbour, Comber, Coalisland and Magherafelt.

              The findings resulted in the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) voluntarily closing their Window on Wildlife facilities near Belfast on a precautionary basis.

              The findings at locations near Lough Neagh present the greatest concern, as they are in close proximity to high density areas of commercial poultry premises. ...

                        A conservation group in the Republic of Ireland has warned of "alarming and unprecedented outbreaks" of avian influenza.

                        BirdWatch Ireland said the highly pathogenic H5N1 strain of the virus is devastating key Irish seabird colonies.

                        The group manages the four most important tern colonies in Ireland.

                        Hundreds of dead birds have been discovered in recent weeks with carcasses testing positive for bird flu.​..
