Can you edit this paragraph?
Before the Midnight New years eve 2011, thousands of birds fell from the sky in Beebe, Arkansas. The fallen birds were found dead within the one mile area of Beebe, about 40 miles Northeast of Little Rock.They were called red winged black birds and starlings. Keith Stephens a spokesman for the commission said the birds showed evidence of a trauma in the breast tissue, with blood clots in the body cavity and a lot of internal bleeding. According to the game and fish commission,the birds suffered from acute physical trauma leading to internal hemorrhage and death. There was no sign of any chronic or infectious disease.As of Saturday, between 4,000 and 5,000 birds had been found dead, said Stephens.The birds obviously hit something very hard and had hemorrhages," said Rowe."Initial examinations of a few of the dead birds showed trauma. Whether or not this trauma was from the force of hitting the ground when they fell or from something that contacted them in the air, we don't know," she said
