Keep your dogs on leash and away from the shoreline!  We are experiencing an outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), commonly known as bird flu, has the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) closing public access to Rat Island near Fort Flagler State Park. Dozens of Caspian terns have died in the area and there are more that appear sick. Samples from bird carcasses were collected and have tested positive.
