A flock of migratory birds were seen falling to the ground in a CCTV footage, the incident is said to have taken place in Mexico’s Cuauhtémoc city.
In the viral video, a massive flock of birds can be seen plunging from the sky as some of them fly upwards after coming down low with many falling dead.
A local news paper in Mexico reported that many locals noticed many yellow-headed birds lying dead on roads and sidewalks of Cuauhtémoc on February 7, 2022.

On social media, a lot of people are holding 5G technology responsible—a theory not varified by proof. According to the Guardian, the cause can be an attack by a predatory bird that led the entire flock to crash.
According to Dr Richard Broughton, an ecologist with the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, “This looks like a raptor-like a peregrine or hawk has been chasing a flock as they do with murmurating starlings, and they have crashed as the flock was forced low. You can see that they act as a wave at the beginning as if they are being flushed from above.”
