Over the last few weeks cycling about Chiang Mai city I have seen a lot of dead and squashed pigeons on the roads and soi's. I didn't think much of it until I mentioned it to my GF and she said there was bird flu in the city and three people have it already. Has anyone heard about this? Apart from my GF I haven't heard anything. Sometimes things get lost in translation.

About 18:50 tonight I was cycling down a soi near Chedi Luang. Pigeon stood in the middle of the road didn't fly of as I approached as you would expect. My wheel passed within inches of it. It barely moved and looked sickly, just waiting to die. Anyone else noticing this stuff?

Bird flu and dead birds are totally unrelated. do a Google search.

There is flu in the city, there is also immunisation.

Formalin on veggies, rotten rice and now this:

I've noticed the dead birds on the roads. Quite a few of them.

I have noticed more dead birds, always pigeons since I posted this thread. I know the pollution and smoke particles at this time of the year are unhealthy for the birds. The pigeons seem to lose their power and reactions and they get squashed by the traffic.
