[Tweeters] Fw: Dead bird protocol

[Tweeters Administration via Tweeters]

Tom and Carol, in case you've received no other input, the advice is first to protect yourselves by wearing gloves, then to collect the carcasses "securely" in a plastic bag(s) that you can seal before discarding them (not in your compost).  For the good of the order, it would be wonderful if you would take the time to put in a report with DBIRD https://dbird.org/

Tweets, I've found 2 dead birds recently.  One was a Yellow-rump Warbler, the other a Steller's Jay.  In light of the bird flu epidemic, what's  the best way of dealing with the bird's body.
