Pssst Mike, typo alert : Panicked residence “sern” stocking up.
Thanks! Fixed!
Shouldn’t that be “residents”?
Welcome to Cutetropolis Elementary School’s Language Arts class. 😛
Yikes! Obviously I rushed through this one faster than I should have! Thanks!
I’d be one of the panicked, residen…. whatever I’m called, stocking up on seed and crossing my fingers this would appease the mighty crows. And staying inside at that. Too much reminder of the movie, “The Birds”.
Perhaps you were panicked…
I can picture sentient houses/residences stalking up on supplies to keep the birds from breaking their windows.
Okay, we may not have sentient residences yet, but marketing firms keep talking about “smart houses”. Maybe the smart house are panicking.
speaking of typos… sigh…
Stocking, not stalking. Although I suppose those fictional smart houses might be able to stalk up on/sneak up on… um, supplies?
Is it the long weekend yet? My brain seems to have gone on vacation already.
I’d buy that for a dollar!
😀 ! and…. EEEEeeeeeeeEEeek!
I can hear this post.
Cue Hitchcock “The Birds” music…
Crows LOVE peanuts – just a an idea.
Why not “Come with me if you want to live”? A little friendliness never hurts, robocrow! You catch more flies with honey . . .
Laugh all you want, but crow infestations are a real thing for some cities. They’re very hard to get rid of because they’re very very smart and resourceful. And vengeful if they feel you’ve wronged them.
See for example the saga of Chatham-Kent, a small Canadian town that has had a crow problem for decades. https://www.tvo.org/article/inside-chatham-kents-never-ending-crow-battle. A particularly amusing thing is that they figured out the garbage truck schedule and come to destroy people’s garbage in the morning, leaving a mess for the homeowners and garbage truck workers. The town has even hired several crow “experts”, but the crows proved too smart for them.
Thank you for the link. I am totally on the crows’ side.
Vengeful Crows would be a great name for a grunge band.
Don’t forget to stock up on toilet paper.
A crisis is a crisis and you’ll need at least a semi truck full of TP to get through it…
I for one welcome our new aviary overlords…
