South Australian bird lovers, from chicken keepers to budgie fans, are being warned about the H5 bird flu — and here’s how to protect your feathered friends. Authorities are hosting an online info session with top vets and health reps to cover biosecurity, spotting illness, and safe practices around wild birds. Key tip: create a barrier between your pets and wild birds — cover feeders, secure outdoor runs. While human risk is minimal, pets can catch this strain. Don’t ignore odd behavior in your birds — call your vet fast. And if you spot sick or dead wildlife? Don’t touch it — note it down and report it to the Emergency Animal Disease Hotline. Stay alert, take action, and keep your avian pals safe.
