Avian flu ravages Scotland’s bird colonies

Thousands of dead seabirds have been washing up on shores across Scotland as bird colonies continue being ravaged by Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI).

Bass Island is home to around 150,000 northern gannets, the largest colony in the world, a population that is expected to drop by more than half due to avian flu.
