THE BIRDS



With Halloween approaching I thought I would share some pictures in the spirit of the season. I am such a big fan of Hitchcock's classic thriller - THE BIRDS. This summer I spent time in San Francisco and made a special trip to Bodega Bay, CA which is a nice drive north of Oakland. This interest dovetails (no pun intended) with my curiosity with cool film soundtracks. There is no soundtrack to this film - except for Herrmann's slicing mechanical bird scrapes and cries.










The surrounding landscape - nothing but the sound of light wind and creepy quiet






Bodega Bay - This water was so still, I felt I was waiting for something to rise from it. Looks like camping is allowed here. Could make a haunting outdoor experience.
