Re: Urgent, West Nile Virus



Paulette and all,

The following link will take you to the National Biological Information
Infrastructure site (ran by USGS) - towards the bottom of the page there's a
link for an online report form. I'm not sure they're testing the birds
anymore as they know the virus is here, but they are documenting reports of
them. I had a dead jay recently as well...
