Martin Mere wetland centre reopens after bird flu outbreak

A popular wetland centre has reopened after an outbreak of Avian Flu kept it closed for over a month.

Martin Mere near Ormskirk shut down on October, 7 and said it had "no option" but to shut down "protect the wetland" centre. On October 11 the centre confirmed there was a case of "avian influenza" in their collection of birds and cancelled the North West Bird Watching Festival at the centre.

But now the family attraction said it was "delighted" to share the "beauty" of the centre again with visitors.
