Cases of the deadly avian influenza, or bird flu, continue to be confirmed in wild species across the commonwealth.

According to information from the Pennsylvania Game Commission, a bald eagle that was found dead on Jan. 28 in Lower Mount Bethel Township, Northampton County, tested positive for the virus.

Results were confirmed on Monday.

Also in the local area, a hooded merganser that was found dead in Chestnuthill Township, Monroe County, on Jan. 27 tested positive for bird flu. Results were confirmed on Feb. 10.

A Canada goose found on Feb. 13 — also in Chestnuthill Township — tested positive for bird flu on Feb. 25.

The commission added that a turkey vulture found on Feb. 12 in Bangor, Northampton County, had the virus. That confirmation was made on Tuesday.

While snow geese are the most impacted, the recently released data shows that bird flu has been confirmed in a number of species across Pennsylvania including mallards, crows, geese and various species of hawks.

A great horned owl, herring gull and red-breasted merganser were also infected, according to the commission.

The commission noted that its dispatch center has received hundreds of calls related to the disease outbreak and continues to test, remove and dispose of sick and dead wild birds as quickly as possible. The agency continues to monitor the disease spread.

Anyone who sees sick or dead wild birds should contact the commission at 1-833-PGC-WILD (742-9453).
