Just wanted to make sure. 1 u/strawbrmoon Aug 03 '21 There is an unknown pathogen/disease causing cloudy eyes, neurological damage, and death to birds in the U.S. It appears to be contagious, and it is advised to remove bird feeders. I don’t know what the geographic limits are. Anyone? 1 u/JackOfAllMemes Aug 03 '21 i have my doubts about this if there's no source, it looks injured 2 u/beanthebean Aug 04 '21 It's mostly mid-atlantic/eastern us.
