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.

100,000 fish died in Arkansas, too. Very bizarre.

"This happened when the severe weather cells were passing through the area." Thanks for providing a logical answer to this mystery. It's the only answer that makes sense
