B/Alphabe-Thursday

 Hundreds and hundreds of birds!

B is for BIRDS

Is it just me or is anyone else thinking Alfred Hichcock?

 Migrating blackbirds

Last week my husband and I were on a roadtrip when we saw THIS crossing the highway and...

 More migrating blackbirds

THIS flying overhead. The good news is NONE of these birds was violent.

    I have a personal page for family and friends - I mainly post about my ailing parents and my new grandson.
    This page that I've linked to on my blog is my Kreations by Kerri page - so nothing really personal - just sharing images etc.

  26. Incredible. I love to see birds flock together like that. I even enjoy researching afterward what the name is for the action for the specific species when I've witnessed it.

  40. These bold birds do make me shiver, just a bit.

    I watched that old movie a few months ago. It still scared me.

  41. The day before my brother died I saw crows, thousands upon thousands in the trees, on roof tops , in the yards, covering everything like black crepe, there was not a spot left exposed.

    God has a way of giving us a heads-up.
