Bird Cults Committing Mass Suicides in Three States

As mentioned in my previous post, the red-winged black birds of the southern United States mysteriously and unanimously decided to die in flocks of hundreds to thousands over Arkansas and Louisiana. They're off to a better place-- a large park bench in the sky, per se.

But for those of us left here in this Earthen realm, their carcasses provide mental as well as economic stimulus as we hire companies to clean them off our streets; it begs the question: have we truly entered the twilight zone? Did the Aliens instill the birds with a deadly fear of fireworks??? After the birds and the fish, will the aliens come after... us???

Michio Kaku, author and professor of physics at the Community University of New York, does what he can in the video featured above to rationalize the situation and dispel our fears. The cause must be either, a) chemical poisoning, b) pathogens or disease, or c) blunt trauma. But then he goes on to say it was probably weather related... And that unlike people, birds follow their leaders religiously...

And so if the leader goes down, so does the whole flock. As to the true source of these birdy heart-attacks, all we can do is follow the lead...
