Today as I left out to take Brandi for her midday walk, I notice a hawk flying above us. As I was watching this hawk, if flew over my roof.

Well I saw something right out of a Stephen King novel. I saw about 3 vultures and about 3 or 4 hawks sitting on my roof and the neighbors roof. I live in a townhome...in one of the interior units so they were spread out across the 4 units. I looked at the other townhome roofs and they were only sitting on mines and neighbors roof. To make it even creepier, its an overcast kind of day and really quiet outside. I live in a very quiet neighborhood (almost no traffic) especially during the work day so that added even more to the creepiness. The whole thing was sort of surreal. It reminded of that movie The Omen.

Needless to say, I walked Brandi on a very short leash and today of all days was one of those days when Brandi wants to dawdle taking her time.As I was walking back to my house, I saw one of the vultures take off. Fortunately it flew away and not towards Brandi. I only had her outside long enough to go potty in a field across the street from my house which is where I noticed all the birds sitting on my roof.

I have never seen a bird this big before up close, it was a little scary (because of Brandi) but awesome. The wing span on this vulture was amazing. I hope this isn't a bad sign like someone is going to die. I lost both of my parents last year and not sure if I can handle more deaths...mine included.

Do you think they know Brandi lives here?. I bought a new couch and she is always sitting on the back of the couch that faces the window. The windows face the woods. Also, I let my cat out of the deck earlier today not knowing I had satan's birds on my roof....I am so glad they didn't get her.
