Apologies to those who are reading this who are not from the UK, however I have found a list of the ten most likely birds that could carry bird flu into the United Kingdom.

Published here by the BBC, this is an informative list of waterfowl which should help people distinguish susceptible birds, should they find them.

I wondered in an earlier article if seagulls are prone to bird flu. It looks like they are. According to another BBC article, “Three dead seagulls found at a boating lake in Gloucester are also being tested for the disease. A city council spokesman said they were being tested as a precaution and the risk of the gulls having died of bird flu was “minimal”.
