Natural History Wanderings

NPR reported on yet another incident of blackbirds falling from the sky in the town of Beebe, Arkansas.  The cause is not clear but fireworks may be to blame and were banned by the local police last night. Last night round seven P.M. it started to rain dozens of birds.  This is the same town that had thousands of birds fall from the sky last year on New Year’s eve.
