What's going on in Arkansas?
First a massive bird kill, now 100k fish are dead. Both north of Little Rock. Toxic dump or terrorists?

I heard about the birds, but not the fish. Same area?

The blackbirds have been swarming here lately. To lose a 1000 would be a drop in the bucket. Maybe Alfred is behind it.

Some of the nastiest springtime-type lines of violent thunderstorms, lightning and hail went thru here New Years' eve.
Have seen this before with lots of cloud->ground lightning. I'm in Huntsville, and we had some of the same, but not as widely reported. |

They said the bird died and fell from the sky around midnight. I thought birds didn't fly at night.

many birds fly at night for migration & use stars to navigate with; others hunt insects at dawn & dusk

Anything that was flying anywhere near this area at midnight last night got blasted out of the sky with fireworks.
The fish kills happen a lot here too. Usually something goofy with unseasonable weather followed by a bunch of rain. It really messes with the water in the ponds & lakes. |

We were asleep by 11 but I expect there were a few fireworks launched at midnight.
