Dozens of dead owls showing up along I-84: 'It's like they fell from the sky' | KBOI

A few years ago, during the New Year holiday, reports of dead birds from different areas filled the Fortean news. Here's another dead birds from the sky story from Idaho, closer to Valentine's Day than the New Year: Dozens of dead owls showing up along I-84: 'It's like they fell from the sky' | KBOI
