Penn State Extension Hosts Sept. 9 Webinar On Mystery Songbird Disease: Knowns, Unknowns And Actions To Take

Penn State Extension will host a September 9 webinar on the Mystery Songbird Disease - Knowns, Unknowns And Actions To Take from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m.

This summer, sick and dying songbirds with crusty eyes and neurological symptoms have been reported across the Mid-Atlantic region, including in Pennsylvania. Many diagnostic labs are working on identifying the cause of this illness.

The webinar will review what we know about the illness, what we still do not know, and ways individuals can take action to make communities and backyards better for birds.  There will be time to answer questions from attendees on this emerging issue.
