Earthquake
“Earthquake.”
Makes a heck of a lot more sense than some rando nobody on Twitter announcing “the main theory.”
“Environmental crisis.” 🤦🏻♂️
Completely programmed. Garbage in, garbage out.
Frank:
In all my years as a science teacher, I have never ceased to be amazed at the stone-ignorance of real science so many “eco-fanatics” evidence.
Clearly caused by climate change.
My first guess is storm or front moving through. I thought birds flew away if earthquake.
But, yeah, crisis for sure 🤓. Esp if no ☔️
Double crisis if you just got your hair did
On second thought, it’s just a Starling murmuration (large grouping) in Mexico. We see them in NE all the time. The word “murmuration” actually is specific to starling flock behavior.
Blame Europe not “climate change”; Starlings are not native to the US.
(- of course that will never be the narrative….)
snorts I think this whole conversation is for the birds!
Grackle flocks are more frequent at the farm this year which means more car washing 🙁
If ravens circle the house and your children are about to make First Communion or be confirmed some superstitious local Mexicans believe that the devil is trying to prevent your children from receiving the sacraments. Usually the May dates for First Communion coincide with black birds migration. They are a smart bird. A pair can keep an eagle from eating all of the carrion or deer strike. Really do not like vultures. When a group dry out their wings they remind me of Third Reich symbolism.
“Starlings are not native to the US”
IIRC they were introduced to North America in the late 19th century by an ornithological brainiac who thought it would be a good idea to import from England every bird species mentioned in Shakespeare’s works.

aka..
A bird brain.

Migrating birds is sensible, imo.
A close friend from Indianapolis texted me yesterday that he spotted a dozen Sandhill Cranes flying north.
Many of the crain’s make nests in our region and they have a habit of fishing in our marshlands nearby.
The screech of Sandhill’s is incredible. If we could hear what noise a prehistoric Pterodactyl would make, my bird brain guess is that it would sound similar to a Sandhill crane.
