Hi All-- The Minnesota Birdnerd blog ( http://minnesotabirdnerd.blogspot.com/2011/08/mystery-solved.html) recently published a post showing a Common Crow apparently recovering for avian pox. Yesterday I caught a Chipping Sparrow with the disease. I have posted a photo and a short discussion of avian pox on my blog, http://dantallmansbirdblog.blogspot.com Warning: the sparrow is not a pretty sight.
