Hundreds of birds were seen scattered across a parking lot in Cypress, Texas, on January 2, providing a scene reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock at his best.Yvone Gomez recorded this video and shared it to
TikTok, describing what she saw as “straight out of a Hitchcock movie.”“These birds were not scared as I honked,” Gomez told Storyful, adding that the flock would not budge as people walked by and even when a child screamed at them.According to the
Houston Audubon, the birds, great-tailed grackles, “congregate in large flocks and prefer shopping centers and fast-food store parking lots where there’s trash for food and trees or light posts for perching.” Credit: Yvone Gomez via Storyful
