In Hong Kong a wild heron has tested positive for the H5N1 bird flu virus, prompting authorities to close a bird reserve on the border with China on Friday. Hong Kong’s Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department said the grey heron, a migratory species, was found sick on December 5th near the reserve.

The incident has occurred a week after a 24-year-old Chinese man from eastern Jiangsu province died last week of bird flu in the first case in China since June. (more )
