Recently, accounts came out concerning deceased birds dropping from the sky in Arkansas. Days later, comparable incidents of deceased birds are occurring in Louisiana. The 2 occurrences are eerily similar, and took place within days and a few hundred miles apart. Further testing will determine the cause. The testing is going to require a cash loan to complete.

Additional deceased birds in Louisiana instead of AR
Several birds have been dropping by the mass out of Louisiana skies. The incident took place just days after the small town of Beebe, Ark., saw several thousand blackbirds drop out of the air on Brand new Years' Eve. Over 500 blackbirds, starlings and sparrows all fell from the sky on a stretch of highway that is near Labarre, Louisiana, reports CNN, which is in Pointe Coupee Parish. The first plunge had birds surviving although they did eventually die. It was not too far from Beebe, Ark., where the birds were found falling from the sky. It was only about 300 miles south. The birds found in Louisiana are being sent to laboratories for testing, to see if there is anything that either incident has in common.
Tension causes incident with AR
The necropsy, or autopsy, of the dead birds from AR indicates that the birds likely perished from tension suffered that caused the birds to fall from the sky. A spokesman for the AR Game and Fish Commission said the birds all had suffered some sort of physical tension to the breast tissue. The birds were found to have internal bleeding. There were hemorrhages as well. There wasn’t a disease. It is unlikely at this point.
Experiencing birds' drop to the floor
A cold weather and storm front is moving through that part of the country, and weather events such as hail or lightning could effortlessly kill large flocks of birds. Fireworks could also be a likely culprit, as loud noises are known to be harmful to birds in flight, but fireworks seem an unlikely explanation in the second event.
