    The bodies of some of the 2000 red wing blackbirds sent that inexplicably fell on a city in Arkansas to the laboratory to determine the cause of death.

    The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission says state farm and poultry Commission Laboratory and the National Wildlife Health Center laboratory in Madison, Wisconsin will examine the dead birds on Monday.
