This is weird
Finding a dead bird is not unusual. Finding two dead birds side by side now that is unexpected, even more so when they are not of the same species. They were in a courtyard so maybe they plowed into the same window but I have been in the area for two years and I’ve never seen that happen.
Last June, the Departement de la sante publique had a phone line in which we could report large dead birds that might have been infected by West Nile Virus. We’ll see if they are still paying attention.
[update] They don’t care. I could get the sequence of the bird flu virus off the net, synthetize the required PCR primers and do a diagnostic myself but that would be pushing the paranoia a bit too hard.
But it would be fun!
