1000s of fish wash ashore, 1000s of birds fall from the sky in Arkansas

[teacherone]

Chemtrails?

Flouride?

Amalgam fillings?

 

[Dr.3D]

Military radio frequency experiments? Perhaps communications experiments gone wrong?

Or perhaps seismic abnormalities?

Quite simple ladies and gentlemen.

Contaminated water.

As a former live long Great Lakes resident, we were treated to such displays caused by companies pouring crap into the waterways before EPA laws addressed the problem. It still happens on occasion as well.

Perhaps, but for whatever reason they appear to have initially ruled that out.

The birds should be cleaned up by Sunday. Game and Fish Commission's Karen Rowe says poisoning doesn't appear to be the case and strange events similar to this have occurred across the globe a number of times.

Arkansas had some freakishly bad weather recently. I would not be surprised if that were to blame, which would account for the specificity of the blackbirds.

As for the fish, it seems just another in the long link of things going wrong with the water supply and cycle.

Give.me.liberty and I saw dozens of fish washin up on shore in Carolina this past week

Testing has not been done on the animals yet.

While there may indeed be weather related concerns, my suggestion would msot liekly be industrial waste poisoning.

Oh my.

I think they are unrelated events, personally. The birds are almost exlusively a single species in a given area, most likely an extended flock. Something happened locally to them. If it were contamination, you'd see a variety of birds in a larger swath as they moved in different ways. I still think the man in the video is spot-on in not letting his kids play outside, though (I wouldn't either until they figure out wtf happened). I'm also more interested in the live birds than I am in the dead ones. Are all the live ones that are weak/hobbling a different species? Do they have different diets, but overlap with the dead ones?

The fish, however, look like another huge fishkill. There have been a lot of those. I think this one will get a lot more attention because of its proximity to the birds dropping dead.

The bird that they had in the cage was a different species than all of the red-winged black birds that were dead in the roads. I think they said there were other species that died, but the majority were the black birds.

Yep. I noticed that. It still looks like an extended flock to me, with a few local single birds tossed in.

 

[MelissaCato]

Red winged black bird ? Maybe the Baltimores took a wrong turn ... I doubt it.

Doesn't sound good, poor birds. And the fish too ? WTF

It's not even safe for wildlife to travel anymore. Gezzzzz

Something like they flew through a radioactive cloud or so sort of poisonous gas. We have a reactor near me in NY and various chemical plants, a state with residents supposedly tough on environmental polluters. Yet there has been massive environmental contamination and accidents. No one gives a shit. So something like that happening in Arkansas would be of no surprise.

Indeed. And what was the primary victims? Carrion eaters.

I've seen this before. It's a volcano getting ready to blow. (According to Hollywood at least... )

Actually no. As a little kid growing up I was obsessed with birds, and from that I still know that the bird in the cage is a female redwing blackbird. (the females are actually brown, not black/red)

 

[Kregisen]

A hailstorm up high like they suggested in the video sort of makes sense to me. Maybe the birds got knocked out from the hail and just dropped down to the ground, and maybe .1% survived....I guess we'll find out.
