In what can be called a scary and bizarre development, hundreds of yellow-headed blackbirds fell from the sky in the northern Mexican city of Cuauhtémoc. Hundreds of birls falling from the sky in Mexico have spared a mystery as many of it died where they fall. Now, a video related to the same mysterious case has been going viral on social media. In fact, Mexico bird flying death video has started getting traction from around the world and everyone is stunned after watching the video. As per Mexican media reports, experts are still not able to find the reason behind the death of hundreds of birds. The Guardian reported that experts said it was most likely the flock was “flushed” from above by a predatory bird swooping down to make a catch. However, seeing the video, it is evident that this might not be the case.
In the Mexico dead blackbirds video, CCTV footage shows a flock of migratory birds descending onto houses like a cloud of black smoke. Most birds manage to fly off but subsequent footage shows carcasses of the distinctive black and yellow birds scattered on streets of the city. To be precise, the incident took place on the morning on 7 February. The birds tend to breed farther north, in the US and Canada, and migrate south for winter in Mexico.
Mexican local news portal quoted a veterinarian who suggested that the incident might be a result of Pollution. A veterinarian suggested that the death of birds could be a result of high levels of pollution, driven by the use of wood-burning heaters, agrochemicals, and cold weather in the area. Another suggestion was that the birds were electrocuted while resting on power lines. There was speculation on social media that it could have been caused by 5G technology. However, Dr Richard Broughton was quoted by the Guardian, an ecologist with the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, said that although he could not see a raptor in the footage, he was 99% sure it was caused by a predatory bird. A predator could have made the birds swirl tightly and driven them towards the ground, with higher birds forcing lower ones to crash into the buildings or the ground.

Netizens in shock over the footage
A user wrote, "It’s a crow bomb. Crows get bored and try to give a nice scare by crashing to the ground with great speed and spread out. They have a laugh or two and then fly away. This is quite common."
