The Murder of Crows: A Hitchcockian Experience

Has anyone ever watched “The Birds” by Alfred Hitchcock and felt a sense of unease around birds? If so, they aren’t alone. This trail cam snap of a group of crows, also known as a murder of crows, can give anyone shivers. Their dark feathers nearly blot out the sun on an otherwise bright day.

Crows are also known for being highly territorial, so it’s a good thing this picture wasn’t taken by a professional photographer on assignment. Who knows what would have happened if the crows had realized there was a human among them? Ours is to enjoy the spectacle of a picture!
