RSPB Conwy reserve still open after bird flu case

A wild duck has died from avian flu at an RSPB reserve in Conwy, it has been confirmed.

The teal was found on 28 December in an area out of bounds to the public and its body was sent away for tests which showed it had the H5N8 strain of the infection.

It follows cases in south Wales but Public Health Wales has previously said the public health risk was "very low".

The Welsh Government said the latest finding was "not unexpected".

Daniel Jenkins-Jones, head of public affairs at RSPB Cymru, said the reserve was still open.
