The oil gets on the bird's feathers which causes multiple problems. Not only can the bird not fly because the oil causes it to be slick and heavy, the bird will try to preen itself to get rid of the oil. In doing so ingests the oil which can be fatal to the bird. If the bird eats fish or other marine wildlife effected by the oil spill, that could also cause it to die because, again, it is ingesting oil which can be fatal.
