Well this is freaky.

A one mile radius of 5,000 dead birds and a 20 mile stretch of 100,000 dead fish all in one state.
The birds were still dropping out of the sky when researchers showed up and they are still speculating what has caused it. The fish are suspected to have been killed off by disease but in much larger numbers than usual.

ewwwww that is weird!!!!

Yes, about 40 miles south of me the birds were dropping like flies. My theory is escaping gasses from all of the natural gas drilling they're doing around these parts.

Also heard something about lightening and possibly the flock was hit. Freaky in dead

 

[mississippifarmboy]

The freaky part to me is the birds and fish in the same area at the same time! That's almost past freaky and all the way up to creepy.

They tried to blame lightening, but it seems to me, they would all fall at once. They fell over a couple of hours. Yep, sounds like lead poisoning.
