So I was googling around hoping to find out if the famous Taiwanese animators of NMA World Edition have done anything on the most awesome story about birds ever: the prehistoric ninja bird with nunchuck wings.
But searching for "Taiwanese animation" and "birds" brought me to the above piece of awesomeness, their attempt to address the mystery of why entire flocks of birds are suddenly hitting the ground, seemingly everywhere.
Also? I thought I came up with a super-cool nickname, "Aflockalypse Now," but it turns out the Washington Post beat me to it. Now I'm thinking "Flockman Turner Overdrive." Got a better one?

Looks like someone believes the Saudis theory of terrorist birds... (no, really, they think that a vulture they caught in their airspace is a Mossad agent).
Did they happen to find a Star of David emblazoned on its wing that led them to that conclusion? Unless the Israelis have figured out a way to teach a vulture to speak, I'd say that the odds of the bird in question being an agent of anything other than disease is pretty low.
It had a tracking device on it, as it was probably the subject of research by an Israeli scientific/environmental organization.
To Kill A Flocking Bird?
I started with Birdageddon, which is duly noted pretty weak, and then I went way way downhill with Weekend at Birdies, Rambird - First Beak Part 2, and Flock Club, the first rule of which is to never squack about Flock Club (yep, I am curled into a ball of shame now)
Tippi Hedron's Revenge (no pun needed)
Has anyone seen this? I don't know enough about the EU Times to know if it's a reputable source or just a rag. The article sounds scary, and maybe even plausible...
"Top US Official Murdered for Exposing Cause of Bird & Fish Kills - WMD - Phosgene"

A Flock of Seized-gulls?
Maybe a new movie for Ben Stiller, "Kill the Flockers"?
Or for those who love Broadway shows, "Bye Bye Birdie".
