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.

I was testing one of Nicolai Tesla's designs in my basement. Had a huge unexplained power draw just before midnight. Nothing got hot on my end, seemed strange. I figured, you know, "one of those things."

Four and twenty black birds
Bake in a pie...

As the pie was opened the birds began to sing.

“Where or where is the BC? Obama end this thing!”

Ka-BOOM

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

I wonder if the two events are connected? Some say that there is an old caldera that is becoming active again.

I read an article many years ago which seemed pretty well documented about the demise of the passenger pigeon.

Contrary to popular belief they were not hunted to extinction but died in a freak weather occurrence, maybe an ice storm but can’t recall for sure.

Obviously the White crackers are trying to kill off the blackbirds.

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.

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.

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.

I wouldn’t go jumping to conclusions just yet.

Most of what I saw in the video looked like red winged blackbirds. They are very common around here. As recently as a decade ago, they were even more numerous. You could see them take off at times and it would look like some huge moving black cloud. Their (seemingly) favorite food was a feed crop called milo. If you raised milo, you had lots of blackbirds. Could this have kept populations artificially high? In recent years, corn has replaced much of the acres that once produced milo. Hmm.

This is interesting. Hopefully an answer will be discovered soon, considering the number of specimens available for examination.

But then again, I said the same thing about the honey bee die-offs :(

What I find interesting is that something this weird and creepy happens and all that 90% of you can do is try and come up with a dumber joke than the last FReeper.

This happened in Beebe, Ark? Is that pronounced Beebee like the guns? That may be the answer.
