Hundreds of birds from as far south as Miami are falling from the sky or flying head-first into buildings and dying after being exposed to smoke from wildfires blanketing parts of Florida, according to a report.

Veterinarians said the birds have very sensitive lungs and the toxins in the smoke are poison to them, Local 6 reported Monday.

But not humans? I thought SHS kills humans.

Put a bird in every place that allows smoking and see if they drop dead. If they do, no birds allowed. Humans will still be allowed.

Very interesting, and I would imagine that there is more smoke from those wildfires than what every single smoker in the state of Florida would put into the air in their lifetimes.

Reminds me of the pet store I went to when I was young. The owner was a heavy smoker and his pet parrot sat a few feet away from him.

I live in west Tennessee...that's west, near the Mississippi River which is in the middle of the country. We had smoky haze today from the wildfire in South Carolina (I think it's SC). Weird.

Have any news stories said you were going to get lung cancer or have a heart attack?

BTW, the Florida hospitals must be swamped with heart attack victims. Anybody seen any numbers?
