ARLINGTON, Va. - The Arlington County Animal Welfare League is asking residents to remove their birdfeeders as dead birds continue to appear in Northern Virginia and D.C. region neighborhoods.
The organization says they are trying to take precautions to keep the unknown illness from spreading, and they say birdfeeders can be a common source of illness.
In May, the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources reported that they were receiving multiple reports of dead birds in the area, and they were testing some of them.
