The Birds...

So, I think the birds of Arizona are trying to kill me. Or at least give me the heebie-geebies.
Bird Incident #1: As I was driving down the freeway several months ago, a bird literally dropped out of the sky and landed with an audible THUD on the side of the road. CREEPY. In case you ever wondered; yes, birds do die while flying and yes, they will just fall right out of the sky.
Bird Incident #2: Several weeks after the bird dropping out of the sky incident, I opened my front door to find a gaggle of pigeons-they immediately flew up, into my face, and nearly INTO my apartment. I screeched and slammed the door. Isaac thought someone had attacked me...no, the BIRDS attacked me. I still don't know why they chose to spend the night sleeping by my front door. CREEPY. It's like they were staking the place out.
Bird Incident #3: Last night, I opened the door to our patio, because our house was hot and stuffy when I got home from work. With the door open, I made my dinner and sat down on the couch to eat. I hear a noise. I look up. A bird has FLOWN INTO MY HOUSE. CREEPY. Once again, I yelled. Specifically I yelled "There's a bird in the house!", but no one else was home, so no one rescued me. Good thing the bird knew the way out, and flew out again, because I might have passed out. About gave me a heart attack.

See-the birds are out to get me. It's more than a little disturbing.

Wow, they really are out to get you. What did you do to deserve this royal bird treatment?

And all those years you were a 'bird person'. Maybe all the birds in the world are psychically connected and they know about Hector.

You are an Alfred Hitchcock movie waiting to happen... just so you know.

You really have had some creepy encounters. Watch out for those robins though, they know how to play possum. Smart little buggers.
