I have been advised that my sick Redpoll likely has salmonella.  This means
I need to clean all my feeders and try to prevent the spread of this
disease.  Here's some info on the matter from Cornell. It's old but timely.

I hope it will help everyone think about bird feeder sanitation - something
I haven't been diligent enough about until now...
