It's not some apocalyptic thing (which I know some people are going to say...maybe not here on the forums...but somewhere). I could easily see it being some strange disease(s). That doesn't really explain the birds in Sweden AND the US...unless one bird was in both places and infected at least one other bird in each place. Although, if that was the case, it would be even stranger how it hasn't happened elsewhere in the world...but then again, maybe it just hasn't been reported (but has happened).

---joke answer below---

Maybe it was the bird's version of the baby boom. Now all the bird baby boomers are dying!
 
I never heard about this ..how strange..is this site certified?
First the bees are all dying and now this. I hope they have a reasonable explanation for this.

I have a feeling Earth's magnetic field might be responsible somehow..

Oh no! First the bees died and now the birds! The birds and the bees are dead! What will we teach our children about now! :gasp:

Speaking of magnetic field...aren't we due for a pole reversal (north and south poles switch...Earth doesn't flip) sometime soon (I wonder...would that mean that people who currently live in North America would then live in South America and vice versa)? Although after reading about it, it doesn't sound like a pole reversal would be harmful, just make compasses work backwards and possibly screw with radios.

A pole reversal is very harmfull...yeah it will take ages before it really affects us I reckon, but some animals use the magnetic field to navigate,,thats why they get screwed up... ;)

This MIGHT be the reason....otherwise animals are dropping dead for no particular reason, that effed up I tell ya :gasp:

It would seem losing a sense of direction would be the worst thing to come about from it though. It's not like our magnetic field would be gone (allowing radiation from space to come and kill us) it would just be very erratic until it was complete. That is, if it even flips. I don't know what else would or could happen.

I would suspect if something like this is currently going on, then that's all that probably happened with the birds, they got lost where somewhere they normally don't go this time of year, and died because of it being too cold or something of that nature. Obviously I don't know exactly what happened, but that sounds like a plausible cause to me.
 
From what I've read, things like mass birth deaths and fish deaths have happened before...so its not totally unusual. Weird, yes, unusual no. We had blackbird and fish deaths here in the U.S recently...oddly enough both occuring in the same town Beebe, Arkansas. Here's the story:

Source: http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2011-01-03-dead-birds_N.htm

So essentially in this case they are thinking something like a power transformer exploded and scared the birds...as their causes of death appeared to be trauma related. The fish died of some disease.

I love how people always consider a plague or some sort of apocalypse when stuff like this happens...its ridiculous. :omg:

There will always be people that support those two things at the slightest hint of either occurring. And sadly media will report on it and mention the plague or apocalyptic theories and then all the crazies in the world will jump on board and be all "The end is nigh!"

It's sickening really. This is just birds and fish dying...a lot of each...at the same time. I don't see any fire and brimstone.

You could perhaps take comfort in the knowledge that these reversals happen infrequently—on average every 250,000 years—but maybe not when you consider that it's been over 700,000 years since the last reversal, and the next one may be currently underway.[/quote]


Guess what date they think the poles reverse..what year to be precise :ffs:
I cant even look up some science stuff without 2012 being mentioned...
 
Where: Kentucky, US
What: Kentucky wildlife officials say several hundred birds were found dead in the western part of the state. The grackles, red wing blackbirds, robins and starlings were found last week.
How: No reason has been discovered or given yet.



:rage:
FUUUU--I live in Kentucky, damn it. :rage: Keep this end of the world crap away from me :rage:


Sorry, man, this isn't a coincidence. Something IS going on. Just don't know what yet. I think it's pretty fookin' weird this is happening one year before 2012--but I just can't believe all this terrible stuff will happen on a date just because.

At first, I thought it was terrorist because the first case was in America. Then I heard about the others around the world, and now, I'm beyond confused.

I would go with the Earth's magnetic poles reversing. It explains it... kinda. But then again, it's weird this is happening all around the world so close together in time, no less.


:rage:

I don't know. I hate this kinda stuff :sad3:

I dunno... If I'm honest I never pay any attention to this stuff, it doesn't interest me, I dunno if that's because I don't live there, or just 'cause I think if we'll die because of alienation, we'll die anyway. (No pun intended, maybe just a little one, lol, alienation, I fail).

Either way, it IS weird. I'm not sure what's causing it either. :hmmm:

yeah the site is certified, its our official Australian news site.

Now I don't usually believe in shit like 2012 or the end of the world, blah blah, but as someone else already mentioned the fact that they're dying in different countries but within the same few weeks is quite scary.
People are telling us not to panic or feel scared but they don't even have any answers.

I reckon if this turns out to be something big they'd cover it up and tell us it was something else anyway :P
 
The cases involving marine life sound to me like they were likely caused by climate issues, since it's easy for temperature changes etc. in the water to be going on without most people noticing :hmmm: And for the birds, I'd heard somewhere about lightning strikes being a potential cause for some of the cases, which sounds pretty feasible I think. Also, the diseases for both of them would make sense too, since being small animals living in close groups, it wouldn't be too hard to pass something from one animal to another.

While I do think if there was some sort of apocalypse scheduled to happen, there would be signs like this that seemed unusual, I don't think this is a sign in particular. Plus, I think there are a lot of different ways to interpret an "apocalypse" or end of an era, and it could be more gradual than a lot of people might think. I.e. I've always had a theory that when the current Mayan calendar cycle ends in 2012 (and starts a new cycle), it could be some sort of milestone for their culture, but not necessarily something that affects the entire world :hmmm: And even if events/signs started happening in 2012 that were harbingers of a worldwide, devastating apocalypse, it might not happen during our lifetime; it might only be that events are triggered at that point to start an eventual one. A lot of the language of ancient texts was vague and/or figurative, so for example a "day" in their terms could be just a reference to a "surprisingly short period of time" and not an actual 24-hour day, etc.
 
I was listening to the Mark and Brian radio show (you'll know if you live in California and Oregon), and they were reporting on this as I was driving to work. They said that the deaths of certain animals in masses is an everyday occurrence that happens quite a bit--all the time--all around the world. The sea and the skies can sometimes turn deadly with disease, pollution, etc and therefore resulting in stuff like this. The reason it's being given so much attention is because it is the beginning of the year, closer to 2012, and quite obviously going to catch people's attention. These mass deaths by no means indicate a sign of any sort and can sometimes have the simplest meaning.
