[Paddlewise] Dead Birds

After the incidents of bird flocks falling out of the sky, dead, now it's
happening over Italy. I heard one report that the birds were dying from
"trauma" but the Italian incident is saying that it might be suffocation.

Miners take birds into mines to warn them of poisonous gas and low oxygen
levels. I wonder if we've now come to that. :(
