On Apr 3, dead birds fell from the sky in Norman, Oklahoma. Even though state wildlife officials say "there's no cause for concern," residents are alarmed, and with good reason. Dead birds falling from the sky is not an everyday occurrence anywhere, let alone in Oklahoma, with its loud booms, rumbling, and shaking.
On Thursday, Becki Miller, a homeowner near Highway 9 and Interstate 35, heard a thump and saw that a dead bird had fallen to the ground. During the next 24 hours, at least a dozen more birds dropped "dead from the skies" into her yard. Also, according to The Oklahoman, a TV station reported another 20 birds were found the same day within a square mile of Miller's home.
Dead birds aside for a moment, there are good reasons why Oklahomans should be alarmed about the unusual happenings in their state.
