Ugh.. poor babies 🙁 I love birds.. now I want to know what happened to them.

i love birds 🙁 this is just sadJanuary 6, 2011 at 3:32 am #835058My hubby said a lake not too far from where the birds died, had bunches of dead fish too. Weird and spooky.
January 6, 2011 at 3:39 am #835059If it was just in the air (ie. birds affected), I’d suspect lightning. However, since nearby fish also seem to have been affected, if the birds didn’t touch that water, I’d suspect a disturbance in the atmosphere, possibly ion or electromagnetic. That can cause all sorts of havoc on animals that are sensitive to it more than we are. Not sure if anyone was doing any weather testing in that area or not (I know there has been some recently in the Middle East to produce rain from perfectly clear skies – you create an ion cloud. China does this a lot to affect weather and it’s been done for years actually, just no one really talks about it. What country wants to hold liability if it manipulates weather that has a negative affect. :shrug: Not being a conspiracy theorist. It’s technology that has been out there being played with for more than a decade actually.) Still, definitely very sad, if not a creepy.
January 6, 2011 at 9:28 pm #835060I read in the paper that it’s happened in two more places too, since this (that aren’t geographically close). I wonder what’s causing this?
24 hours newspaper, where I saw the article today.
It’s the one in the blue box above 70 Plus and beside the turtle. If you double click it should enlarge. In theory, it worked for me.
If the link brings you to page one, it’s one page two.

January 7, 2011 at 6:08 pm #835062Sadly, mass deaths like this happen more often than we think. It’s just that the media has chosen to start publishing them and so it ‘seems’ as if they are all connected, when it is very unlikely that they are.
Fist and birds.. fish, especially, are very sensitive to changes in their environment, and some strange things can cause them to die off in great numbers; very natural (and not creepy) things like a small change in the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water, temperature changes, any myriad of natural or man-made chemical changes in the water, and so on.
Most diurnal birds have very poor night vision and can be easily visually confused at night with our man-made lights; it is why every year tens of thousands (if not more) of birds die from simple impact with radio towers, tall buildings, and even high tension lines.When large winter flocks of blackbirds form they often roost (and fly) in very close proximity to one another. They form large flocks in the thousands. So, if one bird impacted something due to visual confusion or night blindness, yes.. thousands would too, sadly! The same if the flock was taken up by a hailstorm, or any number of other reasons.
Birds will fly out of their roost at night if something scares them– their first instinct is to fly to avoid predation after all. So if a few birds startled (storms? Fireworks?) or got blown out of a roost, most of the flock would probably follow in a panic.There are so many reasons that this could happen and these are only a few theories. We are having a lot of climate change… natural, and unnatural both… and these things can sometimes effect animals in a negative way. Even seemingly minor changes can have a big impact.
While these events are very sad, and I am sure that they are caused by many different factors…. nature has been doing this for as long as there have been large populations of any type of animal.
There are many, many factors that can be taken into account.Here are just a few examples. You can note the dates… they are all over the place.

I’ll read those when I get back.January 7, 2011 at 9:04 pm #835064Thanks for the information Jennifer!
I got a little ill reading some of the people’s youtube comments on the first link. I should know better by now, but it still startles me when the first thing I read is how the world is ending and these birds dying is proof :nea:

It is very sad. I love creatures great and small and I know that nature is an indifferent mistress, but I hope that they didn’t suffer at least.

My art: featherdust.comJanuary 8, 2011 at 4:27 am #835067My boyfriend thinks it’s more like government testing sort of things that cause this. Like testing new radio wave/electromagnetic pulse or sound based weapons. Once again, mother nature is the one that has to pay for our own benefit. At least thats what he says.
Got a busted Windstone?
