A migratory bird in the finch family is a cause for concern for backyard
bird watchers in West Virginia.
Called pine siskins, the bird is flocking in large numbers
in the state, meaning they could transmit salmonellosis to other species. The
last time such an unusually large migration occurred, bird kills were reported
throughout West Virginia from
salmonellosis.
An unusually high migration of a species is called an
"irruption."
The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources' wildlife
section advises that backyard feeders be cleaned every two weeks and rinsed
with a 10 percent bleach solution. The feeder should be thoroughly dried before
refilling.
The cleaning is especially recommended for feeders
containing thistle seed, a food favored by pine siskins.
