One of the roads in North Wales covered more than two hundred carcasses of dead starlings with numerous bruises. Local residents report that it looks like a result of falling birds from the sky.

Carcasses collected for analysis. Experts put forward the assumption that birds had arranged the so-called murmuration ("dance of the starlings"), however, the weather disoriented them and led to the fall. In particular, they could blind the sun's reflection from the wet road.

Why are birds arrange an unusual dance long time was not well understood. One version says that it is an attempt to confuse predators, since a large cluster of individuals of the predator are more difficult to focus on the specific victim.

Unfortunately, in numerous recent cases of mass death of birds due to the fall not only in the UK but in the US, the watchers also revealed a trend of serious decline in their population. It is established that the birth rate of birds on the territory of Albion began to fall from the 80's and still persists. During this time, the Grange has lost more than 60 % of the population.
