If Nathaniel Hawthorn was still around he could probably write a nice short story about this.

I'm thinking H. P. Lovecraft.

That too. Hawthorn enjoyed writing spooky stories that occurred in Puritan Mass.

Birds do and often eat dead animals. Chickens and turkeys will eat others in the flock, often cannibalizing while the animal is still alive. These guys are trying to determine how dead this predator is before having a snack.

In the Southern Hemisphere, do birds circling go counterclockwise?

Very hard to hit. They have a knack for moving out of the way at the last second.

You may be right, but I never have the nerve to find out. I'd hate to end up like George Costanza with the pigeons.

It’s a victory dance.

Feral cats kill millions of birds in the US every year.

Or
Maybe they are signing Ding Dong the cat is dead......

“Very hard to hit. They have a knack for moving out of the way at the last second.”

Morons down here will stop their cars and blow the horn at a goose that refuses to finish crossing the road. I think the goose gets a kick out of it. If you keep driving it WILL move.

It’s just the Turkey’s way of letting the City know that they need to install a Traffic Circle to slow down Traffic and protect the poor little Cats.
