Title: conjunctivitis In Cardinals ?
Post by: Napper on November 11, 2007, 12:57:15 PM
Hey !

I have a question regarding Cardinals and "conjunctivitis"..

Today I noticed one house finch with a large swollen eye..  and then a short time later a Cardinal with a similar condition..

Has anyone else seen this. I found the Cornell site  http://www.birds.cornell.edu/hofi/

Is there a Canadian site?


I took my feeders down and giving them a cleaning

This is really unfortunate because the feeders are just humming away with activity.   :(

 

   :!: warning this is not pretty :!:
