More than 1,000 dead birds fall from sky in Ark.BEEBE, Ark. — Wildlife officials are trying to determine what caused more than 1,000 blackbirds to die and fall from the sky over an Arkansas town.
The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission said Saturday that it began receiving reports about the dead birds about 11:30 p.m. the previous night. The birds fell over a 1-mile area of Beebe, and an aerial survey indicated that no other dead birds were found outside of that area.www.comcast.net/articles/news-national/20110102/US.ODD.Dead.Birds.Arkansas/

We're doomed! First the hive collapse syndrome for honeybees and now blackbirds. You know what will happen if there isn't any more "bird and the bees?!?"

Interesting theory, Scarlett. I'm not a technophobe, but have often wondered what, with the proliferation of RF (Radio Frequency) radiation, what effect it's having on the human body. Bird's bodies are smaller (canary in a coal mine?) and would likely succumb sooner than us.
Think about all the radiation that's going through the air right now. Terrestrial TV, terrestrial radio, satellite radio, satellite TV, short wave radio, Amateur radio, commercial 2-way, cellular phone, wi-fi, GPS, bluetooth, microwave, and the small amount of RF given off by our household appliances, just because they're hooked up to A/C power supplies. Anything that you can get a wireless signal on, that same signal is traveling through your body.
Makes you want to wear a tin foil suit!!
