Gizmodo Earther reports thousands of migratory birds are now dropping dead across the Southwest.<br />In late August, dozens of birds fell from the sky at the White Sands Missile Range and White Sands National Monument, both in southern New Mexico.<br />Since then, Colorado, Texas, Arizona, and Nebraska residents have seen dead creatures scattered along hiking paths, golf courses, and even in driveways.<br />Finches, flycatchers, swallows, warblers, and bluebirds are among the species that have been reported.<br />What's more, migrating birds have been seen to be scrawny and flying low to the ground, eating bugs instead of perching in trees.<br />Scientists generally hold climate change responsible for the deaths. It's generated dangerously high temperatures and massive pollution due to wildfires.
