A wave of mysterious songbird deaths may be reaching Connecticut after starting in Washington, D.C. before spreading as far as Ohio and Pennsylvania.
Animal experts at the Connecticut Audobon Society say they re not sure what s causing massive bird die-offs in the midwestern and southeastern U.S. The birds tend to get crusty discharge around the eyes and nose, and then they become lethargic, obviously they can t fly or they can t see, says Audobon Society Director Patrick Comins.
He says the phenomenon may have spread to Connecticut - as dozens of dead bird reports surfaced in Milford this week.
