In bird fanciers, skin tests sometimes show sensitisation to birds droppings, eggs, protein and serum, even through there has been no evidence of any illness.Bird fancier's lung is a type of allergic alveolitis, which involves inflammation of the lungs resulting from the inhalation of dust particles originating from bird droppings. This condition is also occasionally referred to as pigeon-fancier's lung."}
