Over 4,000 Red-Eyed Birds Crash Onto Wal-Mart Parking Lot

Wildlife specialists think the red-eyed “Eared Grebe“  birds crash landed into the snowy parking lot, mistaking it for a body of water.  The eared grebes who are duck-like aquatic birds, were likely on their way to the Mexican coast for the winter.
In St. George Utah, over 3,000 birds crash landed into a Wal-Mart parking lot.

Fox News said that this afternoon, ‘volunteers had helped rescue more than 3,000 birds, releasing them into a nearby pond’. Officials estimated that about 1,500 died from the crash!
