Hundreds of thousands of fish die along 20 mile acre area From Ozark to Clarksville in Arkansas

I'm familiar with miles and acres, but how big is a mile acre?

I am anxious to start a conspiracy. Can anybody tell me if Beebe voted for Obama/Biden or McCain/Palin?

Raining birds.

Better than hailing taxicabs.

I’ll be in town all week.

That's going to be a really tough post to beat.

And since I'm feeling really lazy, I'm just going to post a Hitchcock reference and move to another thread.

Smiling takes 6.

I saw this happen on a much smaller scale about two years ago.

There is an area where black birds collect for some reason next to a busy bridge.

Lightning caused it.

When the birds start whistling “Deutschland über alles”, you know you’re in trouble.

Wowser. When I pinged you to the first article this morning about this, it was 1,000 birds. Now they’re saying it’s 4,000-5,000 birds.

Sounds like the birds were all DemocRATS and the state run "media" took over the counting again.

Somebody fed ‘em dried beans?

Wait. That’s supposed to make ‘em explode—not fall from the sky. Oh, and it’s what I’ve been told about pigeons, the dumbest birds, and not black birds.

I heard it's Seagulls and Alka-Seltzer. They can't fart.

About a month ago I had so many black birds land in front of my house and several others I took a picture of it. It was thousands and they were traveling together. They were after something on the ground to eat it seems and they left.

We see that all the time here from overflowing old coal mines. Just happened last year on the Susquehanna River. They never identified which mine.
