Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds
Over 800 birds commandeered a family’s home in California. Like a scene from a horror movie, the Vaux’s Swifts swooped down by the hundreds into the chimney and began flying all over the house. The birds stormed every room, leaving their droppings on every surface in the residence. The county animal control officials told the family to leave their doors and windows open and just let the birds fly out, but the winged beasts had no interest in leaving. The family had to stay in a hotel overnight while a relative came over to attempt to shoo the birds away. Eventually the birds got the flock out of there.
