This just keeps getting weirder! Huge numbers of birds supposedly crashing into skyscrapers in remote towns, found in open areas, and reputedly scared by fireworks...although that’s never happened before? The explanation isn’t passing the smell test.

It sounds a lot like the opening scene in the 2003 movie "The Core" (Earth's magnetic core no longer rotates, therefore no magnetic field is produced over the earth, birds need the field for navigation, without it they go crazy, suicidal).
