Blackbirds foil destruction plan in Tupelo

In Tupelo Mississippi AP reported that city officials planned to wipe out millions of roaming blackbirds by helicopter spraying to remove oil with detergent and using fire trucks to freeze them with cold water. The plan stalled as birds spread over 23 acres and officials consider cutting cedar roosting trees. Nearly 2 million birds returned this year with up to a million more expected by January raising health concerns about histoplasmosis.
