A spokesman for the council said: “It is likely that an outbreak of the virus at the park has the potential to have a significant impact on its bird population. Limiting the spread of the virus in the park is crucial and we have ensured the dead animals have been removed as quickly as possible.
“The public also has an important role in helping to prevent the transfer of the virus and they should follow the advice that will be displayed around the park. We ask that dogs are kept on leads close to areas where infection is suspected and that people do not feed the birds as this encourages the birds to congregate.
“People are also asked not to touch a dead or sick bird, including any feathers, and should also avoid
