Nó đi lang thang nó lại cắn càn

According to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, birds may overindulge (quá bê tha) in fruit this time of year that has started to rot and ferment (lên men).

Officials said a byproduct (phó phẩm) of fermentation is the production of alcohol.

“The consumption of these fermented fruits can cause the birds to lose much of their coordination and capacity to fly,” 

the fruits can cause birds to crash into windows and other obstacles. It can also cause them to die from alcohol poisoning (ngộ độc rượu).

“Another possible cause for drunken flying is that the birds have eaten Nandina (sacred bamboo) berries,” “This exotic invasive plant is used in landscaping and draws cyanide from the soil, depositing often lethal (độc hại) doses in its bright red fruit.”

DNR officials are encouraging people to “learn from our feathered friends and consume fruits responsibly.”
