Conspiracy Theory: Why did thousands of birds drop dead all at once? What's the real reason?

I read about this the other day, and found it interesting. To answer part of your question, loud noises could cause a flock of birds to become stunned to the point that they woudl fall from the sky. It would not take much in sound impact to stun a bird.

Stunning it just for a second or two would be enough to have a bird fall from the sky. The article states that they died of blunt force trauma. This could be caused from a number occurance.

Some could be man-made while otehrs could be natural. Since there are so many, I am just going to list the most logical ideas. 1.

The article stated that there had been severe weather outside of the area where the birds died. Near there, large explosions were heard. Since it might not show up on some weather equipment, it might be logical to point to a mirco burst.

These types of centralized high-speed wind bursts can blow 100 miles per shour or more in one small area. A micro burst might ahve started where the explosions were heard and ended past the path of the birds. 100 mile per hour winds might be fast enough to appear like brunt force.

2. Many of the areas around Little Rock are built up on old swamp land. It is not uncommon for methane gas to rise up over the years to the surface. This happed recently here in Michigan in a few spots.

Once the methane rises, and then often explodes. Depending on the amount of medthane, it could send shock waves through the air.3. There have been a few reported cases of, "low air bursts," over the years.

These are centralized areas of air pockets. Think about airplain turbulence close to the ground. I have a cousin and an uncle that are meteorologists and are currently studying this.

They have found that these appear in certain types of areas after major storms have passed through. They explained that a person walking into a low air burst would have the feeling that they walked into a glass door that burst and allowed air inside. 4.

If the birds were flying, they might have gone up higher into the air at a rapid rate. The fact taht the bursts could have been fireworks could explain this. If they hit their pressure ceiling, it could appear like blunt force trauma.5.

Little Timmy Hogenmoler might have gotten a new slingshot for Christmas along with a copy of, "The Ninja in You. " He used these in combination to kill all of these birds, sneak out of the area, and appear in his room as if nother ever happened!

Wow! This is quite similar to the Sci-Fi TV series FlashForward, produced by HBO and ABC in 2009. Will this event followed by a Global Black Out and we will have a a glimpse into the future if we survive in this black out?

Does the writer/creator of this TV drama know something that we don't know? Check this out: youtube.com/watch?v=purBcMTFJIg imdb.com/title/tt1441135.

I actually have a pretty good theory . Birds can certainly become startled by sound, but 5000 of them and all at once? I wasn't buying it.So I did some real actual digging... Another way a bird AND fish can be traumatized all at once is by a large neutrino emission coming from deep space.

It would also be enough to kill the fish as well. The problem with this theory is that it would also be enough to kill other animals as well.My guess is that there was some kind of seismic event that is not visible to humans. It disrupted the birds sense of direction and this is what caused the birds that where in the air at the time to not be able to stay aloft and crash to the ground.

It ALSO would have been enough to open a rupture in the earths crust which released a large concentration of radon into the water where the fish where. And it was enough to kill all the fish that where in the immediate area.! I really don't think that a hail , a bio hazard or loud noise caused what happened. PS: I really am kinda sad about what happened too.

Those that know me know im a big animal lover, and this is a tragedy on so many levels. :( PPS: Not to mention a big health risk to children and people that like to walk/hike/run to work or play.

These answers do not take into account that 5000 assorted blackbirds are not a big deal this time of year. They collect in huge flocks, especially in the midwest. Most people have seen these vast flocks of small birds, probably not knowing what they were.

Of course, it is remarkable to have so many die at once. The most likely scenario is that a large flock of the birds was roosting when they were frightened by fireworks and flew up into the night. They are not night birds and are a high risk flying at night.

Then perhaps a thunderclap occurred, killing thousands. Tragic as this may be, at least it should be noted that these birds are not, by any stretch, endangered. They are common enough to be considered pests.

I like them, but I'm not a farmer. If there is a moral, it's don't buy and use fireworks. A few professional displays at Disneyland etc are plenty, don't mess with the environment or risk your fingers or eyes.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
