HUNTINGMAN Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I seen the other day where thousands of dead birds fell from the sky in Arkansas. I seen this morning that the same thing happened in Louisiana, and just seen on the local news it's happening here in ky now. They said it could be from thunder or fireworks but if it's happening over a period of time it looks like new years fireworks could be ruled out. This is strange about the birds just falling from the sky,wonder if it's got something to do with the end of time,with next year being 2012 and all. I guess we could blame Obama and the dems.

wtnhunt Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Fish too, just a 100 miles away. Lots of talk on this. Best I have heard is that there was an earthquake and it released gas that killed the fish and also got the birds. Seriously dunno, but strange. Don't believe for a second it was what the radio and AR wildlife folks are saying about trauma. Sure the birds had some signs of trauma from free falling out of the sky and colliding with the ground.

buckee Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 One explanation But what about the fish kill in Arkansas only a day before. http://studio.wp.pl/i,ArkansasFishKillandBirdsfallingfromtheskyWhatishappeningwwwkeepvidcom,mid,1107008,wideo.html?ticaid=1b8ab The thing that is hard to understand is that this seems to be a single species happening in both cases.

need2hunt Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 The last time I heard about a bunch of birds found dead they were a mixture of black birds and a farmer had put out poison because they were in his crops all the time (he did get in a lot of trouble too). Don't know what's going on now food source is another possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my first thought........tainted food source. An article I read suggested that the fish kill was a disease and unrelated to the birds.

One heck of a coincidence, but certainly not outside the realm of possibility. The fish die-off by itself isn't terribly unusual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a biologist, but I do think it is related. Kinda strange don't ya think that the fish and game and the usda are NOT on the same page on this???

Jeramie Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think its very odd. Add fish to the conundrum and it makes matters worse. When we saw it on the local news last night I told my wife we needed to check Revelations! That's what I was thinking too..........but then again there could have been a strong west wind coming out of Oklahoma and the smell could have done em all in..... Boooooo hisssss........... Apparently you've never been to Oklahoma. True its windy here but it almost always comes out of the north or south and about a thousand miles an hour.

When we saw it on the local news last night I told my wife we needed to check Revelations! Demi Moore movie from the 80's, the Seventh sign started out with dead fish and birds didn't it? Told the wife last night first thought had me thinking about that. Some people truly believe January 2013 is the end of time. End of the Mayan calendar and supposedly the earth is on a collision course with a black hole that should fit that time frame. Also supposedly Nostradamus prediction for the Armageddon if I am not mistaken. Of course lots of doomsayers thought the millenium would hold all sorts of problems that never came about too.

GWSmith Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 It is interesting but so far it does not look like anyone agency or conspiracy theorist has truely explained it...yet. There is one thing thats for sure...everyone reading this post in whatever place they live knows about it! With the News and the Internet places that would never have known about these incidents are wondering whats going on. Well there are a few people out fishing for seals and a village in somebekistan that have not heard yet..so for them it's not the end of the world scenario yet. LOL P.S. I am suprised it has not been blamed on Navy Sonar yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Not too worried about the end of time here. Firmly believe that Jesus will come like a thief in the night. No sense in me trying to guess when that's going to be, since there's no way I could get it right. As for an explanation, maybe the birds had just found out that Arkansas was in a BCS bowl game?

stevebeilgard Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 it's a goverment conspiracy, i tell you.... lol. the birds suffered traumatic shock. my guess is that they got caught aloft in a tornado and were dead before they fell. i also think the fish died because of gasses released under the ocean. the same gasses that cause the problems in the bernuda triangle and other places like it. again, just a guess. as for the signs of the end of times, the rapture is indeed coming. i'm ready.

ruttinbuc Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 The latest word is that they were spooked by fireworks for the New Year's celebration. The trauma caused collisions with each other and their surroundings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckee Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 the birds suffered traumatic shock. my guess is that they got caught aloft in a tornado and were dead before they fell. i also think the fish died because of gasses released under the ocean. the same gasses that cause the problems in the bernuda triangle and other places like it. again, just a guess. . The only problem with that theory is that both incidences involve a single species? Only one kind of bird and one kind of fish, which is pretty strange. The latest word is that they were spooked by fireworks for the New Year's celebration. The trauma caused collisions with each other and their surroundings. I was ready up on it a bit today, and the problem with that theory is blackbirds don't fly around at night, unless like you say, they were spooked from their perch, but you wouldn't think they would all just drop dead because of that. I could see the odd collision happening, but this was on a pretty large scale. But then there is still the question of why a single species of both the fish and the birds? I can't wait to hear what all the tests reveal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popgun Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 (edited) Since I am the only member of this board that is from Beebe, Arkansas (also known now as Dead Bird Town), I'll fill you in on what I know that has not yet hit the news media. The weather was cloudy and cold on New Years Eve, and there was no lightning, or hail picked up on any weather radar or by witnesses. The birds in question, roost in about 50 acres of wooded area very near the railroad tracks. Our winds normally come from the south west, but that night they were south east. I have a little different theory on the bird situation that hasn't yet been discussed on the news. If the birds were panicked out of their roost because of fireworks around 11:30 pm on New Years eve, why wouldn't we get the same affect on the fourth of July? (and why 30 minutes before the fireworks started?) If the birds flew into one another, or hit houses, buildings, mailboxes and cars, why would there be so many in an open field area that is about ten acres with no trees? To be found on the roofs of the homes the birds would have had to nose dive straight down. Sometimes the trains that come through here slow to a crawl and sometimes stop and park for awhile, I guess to stay within a certain schedule. If a leaky tank car loaded with chlorine gas (or some other toxic gas), happened to sit long enough it could cause this havoc with the birds. Four days later, along the same rail line in Labarre, Louisiana, the rail car slows down again or stops and kills some more birds in that vicinity. Now that the dead birds have been picked up the count has gone to over 5000, but that is probably less than 10% of the total roosting population in that little patch of woods. I don't know if the ones found in Kentucky are near a railroad or not, but it would be interesting to know. I'll try to keep you all updated as the different official versions come to light, but for now, That's the News From Beebe (Dead Bird Town), Arkansas. The birds in question were found to be a mix of Starlings, Red-Winged Blackbirds, regular blackbirds, a few sparrows, a Chickadee or two, and one Duck. All of which roost in that small patch of trees I mentioned earlier. Although this incident caused no panic with our residents, you must admit that when a bunch of men show up in haz-mat suits to pick up the mess, it makes one wonder if the residents should not be also picking up the dead birds right next to the EPA guys with their bare hands. Incidentally, I live about 3/4 mile north west of the dead birds and did not have even one dead one in our whole neighborhood. ....popgun Edited January 5, 2011 by popgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
