A small brush fire and power outage in British Columbia started on Wednesday not with lightning or a careless camper, but with an airborne fish, according to fire officials.
With the help from nearby ranchers and employees from the British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority, a Canadian electric utility company, firefighters were able to contain and extinguish the blaze, Ashcroft Fire Rescue said on Facebook.

Wow this article is really anti-fish. It was the osprey who dropped the fish onto the power lines yet the headline says it's the fish's fault.

I blame neither. This is a diversion. It was Man's power lines that caused this fire.

I think there is a Billy Joel song about this.
