Hi All

 

Just picked this up from another British Falconers club website:

 

 

Dear all,

 

Unfortunately I am the bringer of sad news.

 

As of 12.00pm today Friday 28 October 2005, a DEFRA spokesman has confirmed that ALL falconry field meets are banned. The press release issued yesterday confirming the decision to ban birds from markets, shows and fairs, now includes falconry field meets.

 

It is however, still legal to continue hawking on an individual basis.

 

Please see the DEFRA website (www.defra.gov.uk) for further information.

 

Regards, John.

Here's another good site with all the updates of the bird flu outbreak: http://www.thepoultrysite.com/
