In Richmond, California, residents are distressed as birds die after landing on vulnerable power lines, with a reported 13 deaths. Witnesses describe a loud "pop" followed by birds falling lifelessly, with theories suggesting missing protective seals might be causing the problem. Despite complaints to PG&E, residents feel insufficient action has been taken. They are actively warning others with signs and documenting incidents while fearing the potential for fire hazards as the situation continues, with investigations ongoing from PG&E and local authorities.
It's very traumatic. They just quickly explode, and it's really violent.
It was just horrifying. I didn't even know what was happening at first.
They looked up from the ground and said it was fine.
With fire season approaching, some fear the strange deaths could spark something even more dangerous.
