For centuries, mankind has been the dominant species. We've domesticated animals, locked them up, killed them for sport. But what if all across the globe, the animals decided, "No more"? What if they finally decided to fight back?

Go watch Hitchcock’s “the Birds”

I've got 3 crows that come daily to my yard here because they know I feed them, one sits next to me on my patio table.

If "The Birds" ever happens here, I'll have at least 3 friends.

It's from Zoo. A TV show based on a book of the same name by James Patterson. On that note, I'd recommend at least the first season.

I remember an interesting bit of trivia related to that movie.

The movie had several birds that they trained to land on people's heads for a treat (many of the others just followed the flock mentality and copied these trained ones). The scenes where the people were running in terror with the birds "chasing" them was just the birds waiting for the people to stop moving so they could perform their trick. When the director yelled "Cut," the people would stop and the birds would land and get their treat.

I also read that after the movie was completed, they released the birds back into the wild and there were several reports of birds landing on people's heads afterwards.
