Why do we always get our local news from the U K?

The WH hasn't had time to put their spin on it yet (and give US media their talking points on the issue). (sarc).

Sounds like a volcanic methane bubble release.

It’s happened before in other places, and the area has been seismicly active lately.

Or they heard a Lady Gaga song.

[The commission said that New Year’s Eve revellers shooting off fireworks in the area could have startled the birds from their roost and caused them to die from stress.]

If that’s the case, why do I use a whole box of shells to down 6 doves?

Besides that I’m not such a good shot...

Because most U.S. reporters are too busy shilling for Zero and the RAT Party to actual provide any useful information.

"That's what it sounds like..." - WCS

I was thinking, regarding the birds, that perhaps someone had turned a new LRAD system skyward, just to see what it would do to the birds that were flying over. Now, regarding the fish (I've just learned of that situation) I have no theory... Based on statements above, the incidents are geographically far enough apart to cause me to believe they are not connected to a single source.

Just my $0.02.

What an ignorant statement.

Right you are. This has never happened on July 4th has it?

Once again he politicians refuse to inform the voter of what they are doing to our environment..

There has been some earthquake activity so maybe a methane release?

I also thought about H2S or SO2, which are also gasesous byproducts of tectonic activity. Important point is that the sulphur related compounds have higher lethality potential. Methane unless at extremely high concentrations, would not have been the culprit.
