I am truly terrified of Birds. I have this wierd fear that they will peck my eyes out. Don't make me get to close to one or who knows what will happen

My poor DH is terrified of birds. And wouldn't it figure I have about a dozen chickens. One year he had to "load out" from the state fair because I was busy at my family reunion. I heard from the poultry folk that it was quite a sight to see my husband reaching into the cages to pull out my little gals. Wish I could've witnessed it myself!

The worst thing my birdie would do to you is nuzzle you to death.

I'm not afraid of birds, but I have a very severe phobia of fish, so I really can't judge.

 

[Fairy Dust]

Im not afraid of birds but I don't love them all.

None of the above - I am not afraid of them, but certainly don't love them.

Oh, I am afraid of fish too. Dh and I went snorkeling at Castaway Cay and I had to get out of the water. I was so terrified something was going to get me.

I am truly, truly terrified. It's quite commical when they come near me and I am dipping and swooping away from them. As a toddler DD was taught to chase the birds away from mommy.

I love watching birds. Besides, how could you not love an animal that is such a good parent.

I'm not afraid of birds, I just don't like them. They're dirty and irritating.

Speaking of eye-pecking, has anyone ever seen the Hitchcock movie "The Birds"? I'll bet that it's a real horror movie for anyone afraid of birds.

I am petrified of birds. Geese and pigeons especially. I used to work in Downtown Boston and during lunch the pigeons were always around in large #'s and if somone walked through them and they started to fly near me, I would scream and grab my co-worker's arm. Quite a sight!

Just geese, afraid for the children. We have a pretty bad goose problem in the parks around here, and they are quite agressive. They also crap all over the place making walking downright dangerous.

Yet people keep feeding them thinking it's cute. Same goes for the idiots who insist on feeding the birds in theme parks like WDW.
