Glasgow park bird flu outbreak sees 22 swans die as council issues warning to public

The number of swans that have died due to an outbreak of bird flu at a Glasgow park has more than doubled in just a few days.

A total of 22 birds at Knightswood Park have now been affected by the outbreak with six found dead on Friday morning and a further three that were displaying symptoms put down by the SSPCA.

Glasgow City Council is currently taking measures to limit the spread of the virus and has urged the public not to touch any of the dead or sick birds, remain on footpaths, and keep dogs away from the pond area.
