Ever read the Heinlein story "The Sixth Column" ? Heinlein postulated a weapon based on genetic resonance, and this is before Watson and Crick ever discovered DNA.

Hmmmm... maybe someone was testing a similar weapon and it kind of got out of hand.

The idea was that given the proper amount of data on a DNA strand for someone, or even entire races, a weapon could be constructed that would only harm those with that specific DNA resonant signature.

I just wanna recap what we've got so far:
(For the birds)
1. Poisonous gas
2. Electromagnetic disturbance
3. Chemtrail
4. Fireworks
5. Cyclone
Did i miss any?
How many of these might be related to the fishes?
Also, i'd like to add the possibility of temperature change in their altitude.
Is it possible that they sort of FROZE up in mid flight and just crashed?

Almost 70 bats were found dead along a walking path -- a mystery that has Arizona Game and Fish officials searching for answers. As far as I know there is still no certain answer on this incident from earlier this week.

Fish in the rivers? Blackbirds dropping dead?
This is starting to look like Farming Industry could be to blame.
What is the winter practices of farming in Arkansas near Beebe? What is planted near January?
Blackbirds are famous for scavenging Cornfields for their sustenance in the winter months.
I am wondering if a fertilizer or pesticide has been sprayed on the fields over the remnant of corn ingested by the blackbirds and flowing into the river systems with the melting snow.
Does anyone who live near Beebe know whats going on in their farmland areas? What is their yearly crop rotation for that area?
Have any new additions been added to GMO crops in that area?

Maybe the fish had a disease, the birds ate the fish, and both died?

well if you throw a stick of dynamite into a fair sized pond say 300 foot across you will stun if not out right kill almost all the fish in the pond its the main reason dynamite fishing is illegal because you would wipe out the population. . so my guess would be firework detonations in a massive flock of blackbirds stunned most and ones not stunned were scared and sdtarted to collide with others causing them to hit the ground that or a deadly gas that is not heavier than air because like was said if it was methane it would have sank to ground level and killed people and other ground animals

I dont' think this is necessarily as mysterious. I am a die hard spelunker. I go hard core caving every year. This past year, many caves were shut down to protect the bat populations because a virus was killing them off. The thought was that tourists were transferring the virus from cave to cave via their shoes after walking through bat guano.
It would seem reasonable that this could be what killed these bats

It could be an isolated methane release. It can happen more than once and may have to do with seismic activity. Are you noting any rumbling? I'm just N/NW of the New Madrid fault area.
They had a similar happening in Bio Bio, Chile and now a 7.2 hit there.
