Fears of bird flu in colony on Hornøya in Finnmark with critically endangered seabird

Hornøy Island, Vardø, Finnmark Fylke, Norway

Endangered guillemots sit tightly in the bird cliff. Infection of bird flu can pass through the colony quickly, fear scientists, who have found several dead birds in recent days. The finds on Hornøya join the series of observations along the coast. There are constantly new reports of sea otters in particular being found in Western Norway. There are also reports of sick gulls and sea eagles along the entire coast up to East Finnmark.
