1,500 Birds Invade House Through Chimney

It was a scene straight out of Hitchcock’s 1963 horror flick “The Birds” for one Torrance, California, homeowner, who says hundreds of birds flew into her home through the chimney. “There were birds coming out of everywhere. It was insane,” the homeowner said. It took them three whole days to remove more than 1,500 birds by hand. The birds left quite a mess in their wake. Incredibly, the same thing just happened 100 miles north in Montecito, but a steel grate kept 1,000 birds out of the house.
