From the Summary of the article you linked (emphasis mine):

A photo of waxwings, which became popular in the Polish Internet space, shows dead birds that died as a result of a collision with a bus shelter in Ukraine. Their arrangement indicates that they flew in a compact formation. Therefore, it is unlikely that the collision occurred as a result of coordination disorders after ingesting alcohol.

True, I mixed that up after reading the article because I dug into birds and ethanol poisoning and by the time I posted the comment I had forgotten, that the birds from the photo were unrelated to ethanol poisoning.

Thanks for pointing that out. I added misinformation on top of a good source. 😅
