Just from watching the birds we feed in our backyard, they disapear right before a storm. I have commented many times to my spouse, "something's gonna happen, the birds are all gone'.Well, lo and behold, a change in the weather would happen. It just seemed normal to us for them to hide right before the storm.
Yeah I noticed that too.
My Newfie always goes to the basement of my parents house when a big storm is on the door step....
I just threw out some old pumpernickel rye bread. They are straddling the fence and won't come down. Birds don't like dark bread or chocolate cake. I wonder sometimes if they are color blind. What I do now is I get a slice of white bread and when they swoop down for that that's when they find the black bread and eat it. They also avoid the food if they sense a cat's around.

Thanks for the reminder! I forgot to fill the feeders this morning, LOL!
I agree. Those critters headed for the hills before the wave hit. If they could dial a phone, they would've been on planes flying out of there hours before. ;)
I've seen that, too. And my dad's horses run around and buck when there's a storm coming. Animals have such heightened senses. The animals probably heard the big wave coming and ran away from the sound.
