Hi Barbara.
This is the second time I’ve missed a comment in the last month. Gee whiz! My apologies. The crows are at it again today as I’m typing this (a month later). It sounds like a crow’s convention outside.

Hi Davina, So much for you having a relaxing time reading on your balcony. I've never heard of this happening before (except for the movie, "The Birds"). I don't know what I would have done, other than get out of the area as quickly as possible. The woman with the umbrella had the right idea. Like you, I was happy to hear the baby bird was okay. .-= Barbara Swafford´s last blog ..When The Conversation Moves Off Of Your Blog =-.

Hi Lisa.
It would be a little overwhelming and disconcerting to be “flocked”. Even though they’re not huge attackers, their intent is still obvious. I’ve seen people chase pigeons too. Not great for onlookers who are suddenly bathed in a shower of feathers.

Hi Giovanna.
We have become pretty complacent when it comes to signs, haven’t we? Unless they say “Sale” or “Free”. :-) Yes I did my part. I decided that rather than just sit there and do nothing, at least I did what I could. It was an experience.

I personally have never seen ‘Crows dive bomb’, only on TV like the funniest home video kind of things.
What I found funny was how most people ignored the signs. People today don’t pay much attention many things any more…O well, you did your part.

Thanks,
Giovanna Garcia

I must admit birds scare me a little, especially when they come at me in a flock. I know they won't hit me, but still it's not a fun experience. Here in LA, people feed the pigeons, and sometimes run through a group of them and watch them fly off. Personally, I wouldn't like my lunch interrupted, so I don't do that to birds either. :) .-= LisaNewton´s last blog ..A Guide to Walking the Venice Canals in Los Angeles =-.
