The Birds
Background
The Birds are flocks of sparrows, seagulls and crows.
During the events of The Birds (1963)
During Cathy Brenner's party the kids are attacked by The Birds, which then suddenly fly away. Melanie Daniels drives to the school and as she waits to talk with Annie Hayworth, a large flock of crows gathers outside. The kids run out of the school and The Birds start attacking them. One of Cathy's friends falls down and breaks her glasses and Cathy and Melanie help her inside a car. The Birds suddenly stop attacking. Melanie hears a bird and calls everyone to the window where they watch as a seagull attacks a gas station attendant. A flock of seagulls start attacking the townspeople and then suddenly stop. A large flock of seagulls and crows attack the Brenner house and some start to peck through the front door. The power goes out and suddenly The Birds leave. Later, Melanie hears the sound of Bird wings and goes upstairs. She opens a bedroom door and goes inside the room and is attacked by Birds. She collapses and Mitch Brenner manages to drag her out of the room. Mitch goes out to the garage and sees The Birds everywhere. He slowly drives the car to the front of the house and he and Lydia Brenner help Melanie into the car. Cathy brings her lovebirds into the car and they slowly drive to San Francisco as they are surrounded by The Birds.
