This is terrible.

One of my wife's friends was driving past Springvale South and saw the dead birds everywhere and the council trying to clean up.

Poisoned native birds falling from the sky

"A Melbourne wildlife carer estimates 400 native corellas and pigeons may have died from suspected poisoning in Melbourne's south-east over the weekend. Native bird species killed include the crested pigeons, ravens, sulphur-crested cockatoos and silver gulls ...[The birds] were literally falling from the sky, they were falling down in front of cars and getting hit."

_The Evening Post_, 22 November 1924:
         TAIHAPE TO NAPIER
  Good progress is being made by the contractors for the erection of the bridge over the #Rangitikei River at #Springvale, on the #Taihape to #Napier road. It is expected that the bridge will be completed in February, and will enable motorists to make the through trip from Napier to Taihape with little difficulty. A start is shortly to be made with the bridge across the Rangitikei River at the #Mangawhero crossing, and when this is completed motorists will be fortunate in having the choice of two routes between Taihape and Napier, which will then be brought within a four hours’ journey to the Main Trunk railway. Preparations are already being made to establish a through motor service on the first route to be opened up.
