Here in Hamilton County, Ohio I have been finding many dead birds in my yard. On five acres, mostly lawn but an acre of solid woods adjoining eight square miles of green space, I have found dozens of dead small birds in the past few weeks.
Mainly bluebirds, woodpeckers and finches. It is very unusual to see that many dead birds.
I have pet chickens here as well and they are so far unaffected.
Sad.
They are asking us to turn dead birds in to DNR.
