DOG walkers and visitors are being urged to be vigilant after a number of dead birds were retrieved from a water park.
Avian flu - which is now endemic in the wild bird population across the country is suspected at Sale Water Park but so far cannot be determined.
Samples have been sent for analysis and the council is currently waiting for results. Meanwhile, precautionary measures have been put in place including new signage at Sale Water Park where most of the birds have been recovered urging dog walkers to keep pets on a lead at all times and for people to stick to designated pathways.
