The dead bird report isn't just some isolated incident. It has started happening all over the world. Does anyone have any opinion on the matter.

Why Are Birds Falling From the Sky?

I didn't click your link but the one I read last week said it was fireworks. They were studied and had internal damage caused by fireworks.

I don't think they really know yet, today the fireworks idea was poo pooed because it doesn't happen on July 4th! The best idea so far in my opinion would be the rapid temperature changes.

Fireworks is their way of blaming "man-kind" for the deaths. How long have fireworks been used on New Years, 4th of July, ballgames and the like? Never had any big problems up till now. Probably couldn't have been due to the storms in the area that fueled several tornadoes... couldn't be a natural phenomenon... got to be man-made.
