Swan rescuers recovered more than two dozen dead swans and birds in an east London pond as bird flu hits the capital.

Swan Sanctuary volunteer Gill Walker said the bird flu epidemic is the worst thing she has witnessed in 40 years on the job.

The charity, which rescues and cares for wild birds, found the dead swans and birds in Eagle Pond, Wanstead Park.
