Bird flu, confused seasons and the bison burger.

Bird flu hits again - as result the poultry section at the Royal Welsh Agricultural Winter Fair has been cancelled because of the outbreak of avian influenza in Suffolk. The decision to omit the poultry section from the Winter Fair programme follows DEFRA guidelines and a ban on all bird gatherings because of the risk of spreading the virus.

The search is on for signs of one of Wales's rarest small mammals. The dormouse is a nocturnal creature most of us have never seen, but it's possible to track them down if you know what to look for. A welsh wildlife survey this Autumn is being carried out in the hope of getting some idea of where dormice can be found - and how many of them there are.

This autumn has been pretty spectacular for some beautiful colours and crispy leaves to walk in - but there have been reported sightings from across Wales of plants flowering when they shouldn't be - wild strawberries? daffodils? - is this really autumn or spring? Coed Cadw provide some answers.

And we taste the first Welsh bison burger. Since last year the North American animal can be seen roaming the fields of the estate the imported five cows and a bull. For the first time, alongside cuts of Bison meat, the burger is available from the Rhug Estate Farm shop, near Corwen.
