After the event in Arkansas, reports of dead birds dropping in Louisiana are coming out. The 2 occurrences are eerily comparable, and took place within days and a few hundred miles apart. Why the birds dropped in mid-flight will have to be determined by testing. The testing is going to require a pay day loan to complete.
More deceased birds in Louisiana instead of AR
Many birds have been dropping by the mass out of Louisiana skies. The incident took place just days following the small town of Beebe, Ark., saw several thousand blackbirds drop out of the sky on New Years’ Eve. A stretch of highway in northern Louisiana in Pointe Coupee Parish near Labarre, Louisiana, had over 500 blackbirds, starlings, and sparrows’ rain from the air, as outlined by CNN. The plunge didn't kill all the birds. They did all die though. About 300 miles south of Beebe, Ark., or where the deceased birds were found first, was where the rain of birds happened. The birds are being sent to test laboratories to see if you will find any commonalities between the incidents.
Tension seems to be the reason for the Arkansas fatalities
The necropsy, or autopsy, of the deceased birds from AR indicates that the birds likely died from trauma suffered that caused the birds to drop from the sky. There was trauma to the breast tissue that was very physical. This is what the AR Game and Fish Commissioner explained. The birds were found to have internal bleeding. There were hemorrhages as well. An infectious disease did not appear likely.
Seeing all sorts of raining birds
A cold weather and storm front is moving through that part of the country, and weather events such as hail or lightning could easily kill large flocks of birds. Fireworks could also be a likely culprit, as loud noises are known to be harmful to birds in flight, but fireworks seem an unlikely explanation within the second event.
