BRKNG; Hundreds of birds wash up covered in unknown substance!! WTF is going on???

*Snip.....

Hundreds of birds have been washed-up along the south coast, covered in an unidentified "creamy waxy substance".

The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) said the guillemots, a kind of auk, were discovered on Lyme Bay near Weymouth.

They have been taken to West Hatch Animal Centre in Taunton but attempts to clean them have been hampered by not knowing what the substance is, Grahame Madge, of the RSPB, said.

Disturbed corexit making it's way through the gulf stream?

Wow!!! That is crazy!!

Cheers Moddie!

So many die offs worldwide, just awful, all man made of course, so sad.

It would be nice when they have an article on something like this, that they show us a picture of what the birds look like with the waxy substance on them. GEEZ!

Don't be silly, they can't show the public that or their emotions may be swayed into actually giving a shit.

Instead they show you what a nice healthy one looks like....

Here is a link with a pic

Thats not an unknown substance... thats whale love juice...something you do not take a pic of

it's this!

Just use a Spectral Analaysis and
you are able to see nearly everything!

Could be liquids for Hydraulic Machines

Must have been Obama "Skeet" shooting

LOL was gonna post something along those lines but this takes the cake

Sentient Oil is hungry...

why are they not wearing gloves and masks... "we have no idea what this substance is.. but hey lets pic up the birds with our bare hands and check it out"

Don't they use Dawn dish soap for this sort of thing?

if they don't know what the substance is....why handle the birds without gloves? ick! what happens when they go home, have dinner in front of the telly and are game for a bit of a snog and shag with the missus?

AGREE!!

That's turtle wax, somebody got their wires crossed...

Hmmm, someone did mention the sperm whale had a shiny knob, mystery solved it seems......

Ships dump all kinds of shit in the ocean...

Shrimps dumps, christ, now we have had all kinds of bodily fluids blamed for this disaster, whatever next, jellyfish piss???

Because the evidence is fake.

Said on BBC News that the substance was palm oil

Aint true ;).. yachts.., fisingboats?..yes.., but commercial ships, no way ;).. we have stringent guidelines for that we collect it and give it ashore or we burn it in a incinerator.

Hmm, brings into mind the sea foam surfacing in Australia...

Cruise Ship Dumping of Trash & Feces Conflicts With Industry's Image as Steward of the Seas
[link to www.cruiselawnews.com]

[snip]

The officials believe that the sewage and garbage were dumped from a Holland America Line cruise ship which sailed off the coast of northern Massachusetts last month. The harbormaster took photos of the debris and found a cruise ship cabin tag amongst the sewage.

The HAL PR people are denying everything of course, but there is no dispute that cruise lines dump untreated sewage a few miles from shore. USA Today has picked up on the story and points out that bulk garbage from cruise ships is supposed to be "incinerated, grinded, compacted or crushed" (which still is a nasty way to pollute the oceans) but do we believe that always happens?

What makes this case particularly offensive is that this area of coastline is a "No Discharge Zone" so [b]the requirements are even more stringent than normal. I wonder who the cruise industry folks at CLIA are going to blame for this story?
