About 200 birds found dead after new year celebrations in Arkansas

This weekend new year celebrations fireworks killed about 200 blackbirds. Blackbirds have poor night vision and do not typically fly at night, according to the game commission.

Last New Year's Eve, roughly 5,000 birds were found dead in a square-mile area in Beebe, a central Arkansas town about 35 miles northeast of Little Rock through which birds migrate and that is home to a large roost for the birds.
