The crows are cawing


They are flying in a disorderly fashion above the street, appearing and disappearing from the visual angle of my window.
They seem alarmed but keep flying and cawing.
I think of the scene in Flash Forward where all the crows are falling from the sky and dot the landscape like untidy black stain and wonder whether such events do in fact occur.
There have been frogs and fish falling from the sky (and also in Magnolia) and that was backed by a scientific explanation, but crows falling dead?
