However, we know that, in Angus's case, it is not based on ignorance but
on a deliberate distortion of the facts because all he is doing is
pursuing his vendetta against conservation organisations.

Asw birs faeces are probably a know source of infection and birds do
not crap where they are told ot is entirely possible that a child
could come inot contact with infected faeces at a reserve.

Do you plan to keep all children in doors after all there is more chance
that they will come in contact with bird droppings playing in the play
ground than walking quietly down a track to a hide.


I cannot see why the reserves are not taking precautionary to shut
these reserves until the risk recedes unless they are more concerned
with the money they might lose.


If you tell us your risk assessment we will be able to see exactly how
high you see the risk and why.




See my response to

Oh dear Angus is it getting too much for you to be able to answer
questions.

Try this one and as nobody else has raised it do give it a go there a
good boy.

If as you say reserves should close why does the National Health Service
say

"You can still feed wild birds and ducks, but make sure that you wash
your hands thoroughly afterwards and steer clear of sick or dead birds.
"

That shows there is a risk.


Are you claiming to know more about the medical risks than the NHS or
are you suggesting the risk of contamination watching birds through
binoculars is greater than that of touching bird feeders etc. when
filling them up?
