From Hitchcock's The Birds (1963):
Sebastian Sholes, fisherman in diner: Heck, maybe we're all getting a little carried away with this. Admittedly a few birds did act strange, but that's no reason to...

Melanie Daniels: I keep telling you, this isn't 'a few birds'! These are gulls, crows, swifts...!

Mrs. Bundy, elderly ornithologist: I have never known birds of different species to flock together. The very concept is unimaginable. Why, if that happened, we wouldn't stand a chance! How could we possibly hope to fight them?

Not to worry!

The birds are awaiting the emergence of the 17-year cicadas.
Just as soon as the soil temp hits the magic number, just like a hot day in the city they come out from everywhere.
