China daily had a photo today of some of the 100,000 migratory geese, ducks, swans, and cranes that are occupying the reservoir in Henan province - apparently an unusual event due to recent warming of the climate in that area.
This is just another example of how unexpected climate changes can alter all the predictive models of how avian species interact with human food and water supplies.
It's also another example of how it is difficult to predict public health epidemiology without tracking what's going on in Asia in general and China in specific, in terms of interactions of birds and people.
