    Over the weekend in arkansas 1000's of birds dropped from the sky and died over a town!! Not one day later and 125 miles away almost 80,000 to 100,000 fish die in the arkansas river!! In both cases they were almost all the same species!!

    Also just read msn today and another mass bird death happened in Lousianna today!! About 500 birds died again!! Is this not insane or what!!

    AND!! They still have no clue as to what happened!!

    I hate to hear that news. Here at the beach, they are finding dead pelicans that have been decapitated on purpose!! How sick is that??? I sometimes get so sick over what people will do that I turn everything off and leave the newspaper in the bin.

    I can maybe see this in the first incident since it was on new years eve but what about the others!! Just seems very strange that it happened not once but three times in a very short time span!!

    This happened in Illinois a couple of years ago. There were lots of theories but no concrete answers.

    I certainly DO NOT think it was fireworks - only in AR?
