: Does anyone know what it means when you find a dead bird at your back door? And no, it wasn't the cat.
Around here (Chicago) this year, it means West Nile virus. Almost all the crows and larger birds disappeared by August, and it became eerily silent at dawn. (Lots of horses died, too. Oh, and a couple dozen people.) Be careful handling it.
