"The Birds - 2007"

In the 1963 Alfred Hitchcock classic- live birds shut down a small California coastal town- in this case- dozens of dead birds "temporarily" shut down 3 Washington D.C. Metro stations Sunday.

Authorities say the birds were poisoned by an overzealous contractor and no humans were in danger.

Unseen by most in the background beyond this media conference was a mysterious profile shadow on the wall of a portly stomach and distinct facial features.
