ABOUT

A swarm of hostile birds is a collection of feathered avians that fly in a twisting mass. The birds swoop and dive to attack creatures, pecking with their beaks and slashing with their talons. The flights are often composed of the same type of bird, such as starlings or magpies, but some larger birds might be found mixed into their number.
