Well that's pretty much a buz-kill.
And here we were looking for a Warehouse 13 sort of explanation.
More dead birds? Anyone?

People think stuff only happens when they see it in the news. News flash: it happens whether you know it or not.
Remember the big shark scare about 10 year ago? Every day, shark attacks were in the headlines. News made it sound like sharks were coming onto the beach and stealing babies. Turns out it was really a below average year for shark attacks, less than half the fatal attacks compard to the year before. But by golly everyone was scared to go into the water that year!
Same thing here. Bird flocks die. Fish kills happen. Birds and fish ain't smart, they run into stuff that kills them. Circle of life. Nature and all that. Happens all the time, year in, year out, over and over. But let it hit Drudge and MSNBC, and sheeple think it never ever happened before and there is some big new goverment conspiracy behind it all.
