(For Beauty) Pictures: A Black Bird Convention.....

[PandyPaws]

I don't know what is up with the population increase of these birds here.....
I do remember seeing them during past trips, but not near as many......there are hundreds, and they seem to migrate all over WDW every day, I have seen them in the earlier afternoons swirling the skies and landing on the roof and rails at The Contemporary.....later afternoons they come over here to the Swan/Dolphin, Y&B and Boardwalk.....EVERY DAY!!!! They sure are noisy!

On this particular day, I happened to be in my room, and here they were, bold as could be, sitting on my balcony. My opening the door did NOT deter them, they just looked at me rather indifferently :rolleyes: Making noise sends them up the roost on the roofline....then they come right back!! They hang out for about 15 or 20 minutes every day then fly off elsewhere :confused:

Oooh, shades of Alfred Hitchcock :) Lucky you to be able to take photos of the birds at the Dolphin :)

Great shots! If that doesn't look like a Hitchcock, I don't know what does!

Your view is very similar to ours when we were at the Dolphin in February. We had lots of gulls visit us, but no crows!
