I wish to thank our dear readers for your comments and donations hitherto. I am also very sorry for going quiet for almost one week. I assumed that I was fatigued when I came from Bunyala and would handle just alright going to Mwea but I was wrong. just after getting the birds’ test results Mwea Rice Scheme was my stopping point to continue with surveying for Bird Furadan Poisoning. For all those days that has not been possible and I have been on Malaria treatment. I feel better now, a little too weak though but I should update you as from tomorrow, One scout who leads tourists on bird shooting expeditions has informed me that poisoning is on and with mostly Egyptian Geese being poisoned and sold in illicit brew dens.
Will keep you posted.

Hi Martin, I’m glad you’re feeling better after a bout with malaria. I understand the treatment is almost as bad as the disease. Looking forward to more reports.

Martin, I hope for your speedy recovery……
Oh Martin, I am so sorry about your bout with malaria. Please take care and hope you will be feeling better soon!!
“Egyptian Geese being poisoned and sold in illicit brew dens”. What is up with this. Surely you don’t make some kind of ‘brew’ with geese? These are such beautiful birds and to meet such a death through poisioning is so very sad. My gosh, when will this end!!!!?
