A number of birds with avian flu have been found dead in NI since the beginning of June
Members of the public are advised not to pick up or touch any dead or injured wild birds due to avian flu.
The Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs said birds that had bird flu have been found dead in Bangor, Lough Erne and Rathlin Island since the beginning of June, when bird flu restrictions from the previous outbreak were lifted.Earlier this week, positive results for the disease were recorded in one gannet and four guillemots discovered in Portrush West Strand and Portballintrae. Seven Guillemot birds were also found dead within a mile of Bangor Harbour.
However, the public has been warned not to pick up or touch any dead or injured wild birds as this can cause the disease to spread to other colonies of seabirds or poultry flocks. Last year saw the largest ever outbreak of avian flu in the UK which led to a number of disease control measures being introduced in Northern Ireland.
