10,000 birds fall from sky From correspondents in China MORE than 10,000 birds died mysteriously in eastern China's Jiangsu province, dropping like rain from the sky, state media reported yesterday. Farmers and other witnesses in Sangongdian village in Taizhou city saw flocks of bramble finch suddenly fall from the sky on Tuesday, the Beijing Youth Daily said. Most of the birds were dead when they hit the ground and some were injured, it said. The birds look like sparrows and are small in size. Officials from the local centre for disease prevention and control rushed to the scene.

Something's up with the magnetic pole, perhaps?

10,000 birds fall from sky

I read the news today oh, boy
Ten thousand birds in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the birds were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many birds
it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I'd love to turn you on
