The Birds - with 2m wing spans Tippi Hedren was lucky Hitchcock didn't include these Frigate birds in his film

This is just a small section there were over 50 of them circling - waiting their turn to scoop water from the puddle

Freaky birds - cool shot :)

[Alan Warren]

If Hitchcock did pop them in, she'd have been calling out "Hey Fatty, what's with all these huge Friggin' Birds?!' :-p

[Shannon Pitton]

Tippi was lucky, that's one darn big bird.

[Dave Schofield]

They look prehistoric. brilliant shot.

[KeithDavid]

Very gothic... definitely Hitchcockian

[alia_801]

Very dramatic shot! Nice detail on the birds :)

[Janna Dawn Goldrup]

I can only look at your album in small increments b/c your photos make me too envious. ;)

[Megan Richardson]

@jgoldrup thankyou - what a lovely compliment
