We want to let everyone know that avian influenza (also known as bird flu) has recently been confirmed in wild birds in some of Birmingham’s parks pools. This is part of a wider and ongoing situation affecting wild bird populations across the west midlands and the UK as a whole.

Here’s what you need to know.
What is avian influenza?
Avian influenza is a virus that mainly affects wild birds. It is not adapted to spread easily to humans, and the risk to the general public’s health is considered very low.

How might people be exposed?
People can sometimes catch bird flu through very close contact with infected birds or their droppings, feathers or nesting material. However, this is rare and only happens in unusual circumstances.
How to keep yourself and others safe
To protect yourself and help stop the virus spreading to other birds:
• Do NOT touch or pick up sick or dead birds — even if they look harmless.
• If you accidentally touch a bird or anything that might be contaminated, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water as soon as possible.
• Keep dogs and other pets on leads around areas where birds congregate.

What the Council is doing
We understand that seeing sick birds may cause some distress. Our Parks Service have a protocol in place to safely respond to sightings of sick or dead birds, monitor the situation, and remove affected birds where needed.

Important reassurance
At this time, the virus mainly affects birds. Cases of serious human infection are very rare, and there is no evidence of sustained spread between people. GOV.UK

We appreciate your cooperation and vigilance.
Thank you for helping us keep our parks safe for everyone

Well the world has turned and old Twelthy Night has been and come. The libations were pored, the evil spirits driven out and the trees have been Well and truly blessed for another year. We sang, we danced,we processed and we were entertained. Donald Trump tried to solve the bin strike and take over the Likeys to build a ski centre and was stopped by St George in a Temu flag helped by the doctor and Harry Canab the Devils huntsman. We were serenaded by Ozzy with a rendition of bin pigs backed up by Old Oss and a flaming bull. None of this happens by accident and I would like to say a big thank you to Black Adder Morris who truly dance the dance, the Lickey staff who give above and beyond, the mummers who acted, all the volunteers who set up and made the orchard a spectacle of light, guided visitors, poured apple juice, built bulls made announcements and planned like crazy. The voluntees made sure nothing was missed and all went without a hitch. Lastly I would like to thank all of you merry Wassailers who turned up, made an effort, brought the noise, joined in and made this the most amazing event it could ever be. It wouldn't be half as much fun with out all of you. So thank you one and all, and it just leaves me to say WASSAIL!!....DRINKHAIL!!
