[Leica] CV-19 Autumn Bird Feast - Pyracantha Coccinea

[Brian Reid]

In the warm parts of California, such as where I live now, Pyracantha 
bushes are deadly to birds. The berries ferment in the sun, the birds 
eat them and get drunk, then fall on the ground and are hit by cars or 
eaten by predators. A few weeks ago I was out for a walk with my dog and 
passed a Pyracantha bush with half a dozen unconscious birds on the 
ground nearby.
