There have been calls for greater signage to make the public aware of a possible bird flu outbreak at a popular visitors spot.
A number of dead birds have been spotted on an island at the Carron Valley Reservoir between Denny and Fintry, prompting concerns over a possible outbreak of the disease at the site.
Local walker Ian McDade says he has ‘over 100’ dead birds removed from their nesting site on the island - but has been critical of the level of information available to the public at the reservoir about the potential dangers of bird flu.
