The birds were members of the Branch Davidians and commited mass suicide, in preparation for the upcoming landing of the alien mothership.

This doesn't explain the fish in NZ, the fish in the Chesapeake, etc...

birds use the stars to navigate. they sometimes will get confused by city lights and fly off course, or circle a city, until exhaustion, and fall from the sky,...

at least thats what some experts stated on the "tell-lie-vision" program called "Life After Humans" (or a simular title).

Seriously, we're all gonna die: http://www.mnn.com/earth-matters/ani...main-a-mystery

It seems that the animals are all freaking out. O_O

The end IS NEIGH!!!!!

*Also, it was only one species of bird and one species of fish that were killed. None of the other ones in the area were affected. :/ **

Maybe HAARP, maybe oil, maybe Corexit.

I don't buy "fireworks" or any other explanation citing the accidental. Not for a second.

I saw lightning suggested as a probable reason on some news source.

I think Arkansas and Louisiana should petition other states for a scientist or two to help out.
