Yesterday, I saw a B-C Chickadee at our birdbath, feathers fluffed out, = perched. This morning we found him dead in the bird bath. (Don't worry, = I cleaned out the birdbath right away.) Right now, there is another one = that appears the same at our birdbath. I also noted that the flight was = not as strong and bouncy, like that of a regular chickadee, but more = weak, flimsy and less direct. I am wondering what disease this is, and = how is it passed on from one bird to another. Has anyone else seen this? = I am concerned about my chickadees!
