Investigation underway into suspected bird flu case in Co Fermanagh

The Department of Agriculture is urging Irish farmers to be vigilant and monitor their poultry for signs of bird flu.

It comes as Northern Irish authorities are investigating a suspected case of the disease in a flock in County Fermanagh.

The Department is asking all owners to implement strict biosecurity on their premises as we are currently in the high-risk period.

It says it is critically important to ensure that wild birds do not have access to feeding areas and feed stores at this time.
