Does anyone remember the old movie "The Birds" It was like that at my house yesterday. It seemed like thousands of black birds suddenly landed on my steet and and they pooped everywhere! Me and several neighbors had to wash our cars today because there was so much bird poop that I couldn"t see out the windshield. Bird poop is all over the sidewalks and even on the front of my house. I'm gonna have to get the pressure washer out! I have never seen anything like it before! Good thing I was inside....

A couple of weeks ago I had thousands fly over my house. I had never seen so many at one time. Of course no photo. Incredible sight.:)

I remember watching that show when I was little. My mom made me go in the bathreeom to get the curlers and I didn't want to turn on the light. It was scary.

I loved that movie! I saw it again a few years ago. It wasn't as scary as it was the first time but I still enjoyed it!! :thumbup:

That really would be scary!

That is a classic movie! My neighbors with two story homes have pigeon problems. YUCK!

Great movie...not so good for those phobic about birds (one of my sister-in-laws is terrified of them).

When the weather changes we get flocks of while-tailed black cockatoos descending on a big radiata pine we have at the back of our block. Awesome birds, huge, noisy and their beaks can shred pinecones with ease.

I remember the movie scared me half to death, I'm leary of birds flying over my head to this day. Yuk.

me too.....! I was a little kid when the movie first came out and it took years for me to get over the general intimidation of birds.
