簷篷現雀屍 出動消防

【明報專訊】元朗大馬路開心廣場的2樓玻璃簷篷頂部,昨午4時許發現一隻約6吋長、身體和羽翼呈綠色的相思雀屍,途人唯恐細菌散播報警。

食環署人員到場,發現簷篷位於高處無通道可前往,遂要求消防協助。消防處其後派出一輛雲梯車到場,架起雲梯由兩名消防員陪同一名食環署職員到簷篷頂部善後,食環署人員先用消毒藥水處理鳥屍,再用鐵鉗撿起死鳥,放入透明膠袋,帶返漁護署化驗。

A dead bird was found at the glass canopy of a mall at Yuen Long yesterday.  It was picked up by firemen and sent to AFCD's lab for testing.

死於撞窗的野鳥相信比死於禽流感的多,如當局公報鳥的死因統計,或許可以減輕市民對野鳥的誤解。

The number of birds killed by windows is probably much more than those killed by bird flu.  Perhaps the public's concern about wild birds could be put in the right perspective if the government would release statistics on the causes of death.
