ore birds fall from sky — this time in Louisiana

'These large events do take place; it's not terribly unusual,' says U.S. official
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/40904491/ns ... vironment/
NEW ORLEANS — Some 500 dead and dying birds fell onto a Louisiana highway on Monday, just three days after a similar incident in Arkansas.
The events have led to speculation running from poisonings to "End of Days" scenarios, but a key federal agency emphasized that mass bird die-offs are not that rare.
Most of the birds found on Louisiana Highway 1 near Point Coupee were red-winged blackbirds, as was the case in Beebe, Ark.
some 360 miles away. The species is one of the most common in the United States, with a population estimated at up to 200 million.
Some of the Louisiana birds will be tested by the National Wildlife Health Center run by the U.S. Geological Survey. But a USGS spokesman told The Baton Rouge Advocate that USGS records showed 16 incidents in the last 30 years where more than 1,000 blackbirds have died all at once.
"These large events do take place," he said. "It's not terribly unusual."
The National Audubon Society agreed that mass bird die-offs are not rare.
"Initial findings indicate that these are isolated incidents," Greg Butcher,
Audubon's director of bird conservation, said in a statement.

It happens due to several reasons and have happened in the past. Here there is reports of trauma, mostly EMP , shockwaves or even plain lightning..
Prime suspect here is the fireworks, i doubt that, ligthing or thunderstorm is a more possible reason..

Could it be something related to HAARP? If it is,then it's very dangerous for humans.

For those who Do not know about US 'HAARP' program, this is the right time to google. I bet, You will be amazed.

HAARP? Really? Really(really shrill tone here)!? :roll:
C'mon, you can't seriously believe the "death ray" stories floating about on the Internet. If true, then its a gigantic conspiracy involving the following centers of education: University of Alaska (Fairbanks), Stanford University, Penn State University (ARL), Boston College, UCLA, Clemson University, Dartmouth College, Cornell University, Johns Hopkins University, University of Maryland, College Park, University of Massachusetts, MIT, Polytechnic Institute of New York University, and the University of Tulsa. All of who have been involved in the development of the project.

As for the "Government releasing Phosgene gas which caused those birds to die in Arkansas", I suppose the government of Sweden was also somehow involved as a bunch of birds died in Sweden too. You don't believe me? Hey but look there was that top secret report specially prepared by the Tajik Highway Patrol for Emomali Rahmon, the president of Tajikistan where they said the US was the source of all the world's evil. What? You don't believe there is such a report? I'm telling you there is...erm, I saw it on the Internet, erm..I read it in a magazine somewhere.
Also how does that explain the recorded (USGS) 16 incidents in that last 30 years, before the US supposedly got the Phosgene gas out of Iraq?

Keep in mind that conspiracy theories exist for almost anything. There are conspiracy theorists saying, among other things; there was no Holocaust, the moon landings were filmed in a studio, etc,

I have been reading a lot on this topic - there is a difference in what is being shown to public and what is actually being done.

Something definitly has gone wrong up down there - the result is down on the earth.
