I know seemingly odd things like this happen from time to time, but for some reason, these events are being looked at differently (by the media).

Starlings, good riddance. Red-wing blackbirds, many great memories of them while growing up.

This happened when the severe weather cells were passing through the area. They were very intense.

The updraft in a column could sweep up a flock of flying birds, pulling them up to extreme height and cold, where they were paralyzed or frozen, then dropped back to the ground after being expelled from the top of the column.

The MEDIA likes to ‘scare’ the public. It sells laundry detergent.

I’m sorry. I was referring to the first bird kill.

This is a second discovery. Interesting. Although it is likely still due to the same thing.

Either that or WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!

More Red wings...hmmm....

Migratory birds.

In winter they often congregate in agricultural areas.

In winter, grain is an important source of food, and many birds feed on corn stubble and at feedlots.

they may harbor histoplasmosis, a fungal lung infection that is contagious to humans.

Reports are that their internal organs were mashed, like they had experienced blunt force trauma.

The real puzzle to me is why the birds were flying at night. Where I live the birds go to roost at sundown.

Maybe someone is testing out a new home-made weapon?

I remember when infowars.com was NWO tin foil hat. Today it is news.

I get a lot of red winged blackbirds feeding in my yard this time of year. It’s not unusual to see 200-300 at a time. They flock in large numbers. Is it possible they may have all fed on something that was tainted?

I bet they were moving in a flock, got swept up to high altitude by a freak circulatory current and got flash-frozen.

"of which were lying face down, clumped in groups, while others were face up with their wings outstretched and rigid legs pointing upward"

Oh noes! Some were face-down while others were face up? Definitely proves a consipracy.

It seems that the Canadians are experiencing a similar problem.
http://beforeitsnews.com/story/336/601/10,000s_of_Birds_found_dead_in_Manitoba.html
tens of thousands of birds are dropping dead.
They at least have tested the birds and found the problem. Avian Flu.

A shocking report prepared for Prime Minister Putin by the Foreign Military Intelligence Directorate (GRU) states that one of the United States top experts in biological and chemical weapons was brutally murdered after he threatened to expose a US Military test of poison gas that killed hundreds of thousands of animals in Arkansas this past week.
