HI Ruth: I remember the picture of the feather, that was on twexus but I can't remember the word that it was associated with. There do seem to be a lot of bird words floating around. (sounds like name of an old song)

I'm still trying to locate how the bird flu transfers from chickens/birds to humans. Didn't have much time last night because of those parasites infecting my computer.

I hope you're doing well, it's been cold at night in the desert, but I guess we can't complain considering the frigid weather up north and east. I will stop now because I don't want to cause us to go back to chat. But did think all the bird reference was interesting. I wish someone had copied all those messages and could post them here in one place.

I thought like Sars through the cats they eat, also mayhaps they eat birds?

Feces - When the feces dries, it aerosols

Parasites - ticks, mosquitoes, and fleas

Ingestion - eating an infected bird.
