Wildlife experts were baffled when unexplained bird deaths swept in the area of Washington, DC on Saturday. It is currently a mystery for city residents and scientists why these birds are suddenly going blind and stumbling around outside people s houses.
Alexandra Dimsdale, a young DC resident brought a dead bird found outside her home and consulted the City Wildlife, a nonprofit rehabilitation center in Washington, about its condition. The rehab center told the resident that some sort of neurological illness blinded the bird and unfortunately, they were unable to save its life. We can t do anything for it, but we can put it out of its misery, said the rehabilitation staff to Dimsdale. Although the reason behind this was not yet fully unraveled by Wildlife experts, they were able to gather some reports regarding the deaths that might just help them understand and protect the dying birds.
