Birds exposed to 'hidden pollutants' in south Wales valleys
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-23532423
"Birds which have returned to the former industrial valleys of south Wales are being exposed to extremely high levels of hidden pollutants, experts warn.
Tests on eggs of dipper birds found chemicals used as flame retardants in furniture and motor vehicles.
The birds have fed on local rivers in growing numbers since heavy industries such as coal mining declined."
