In the past 2 weeks saw article - with NO details - about thousands of birds caught up in a storm - lawns were covered with the dead.  I re-read to find out where and what kind of birds............with no luck.  Talk about a half a story.  Grrr

Birds are prey for something bigger and often know there's a hungry hunter in the area.

 

Be it a hawk, cat, or snake - they know to be unavailable for that particular breakfast or lunch date if you know what I mean.

It's still a bit early for birds here, but I did see one fly by my window almost as fast as the UPS driver.  

 

But, soon they will be getting up early sometimes around 4 am chirping loudly outside my bedroom window.

Mockingbirds used to bother my mother's cat. Then she caught one. They still bothered her, but...

 

It's rainy here in CA where I live so fewer birds are out.
