No, that’s not the opening of a joke. There genuinely was a murder in my backyard this morning, as you can clearly see:
I sent the pics to my husband with the line “don’t panic, but there’s been a murder in the backyard.”
His answer: “Better call the cops. There might be a robin later.”
He’s a bigger idiot than me.

Are they crows or red-eyed chuffs? I like chuffs, except they tend to throw the garden around.
Crows, though, are not welcome to bring their murders to town.

LOL! I love this–and his response 🙂
My previous car was a black Chrysler 300. When I visiting my sister I came outside to find 8 huge crows around the windshield and on the roof. I took a picture then posted it to Twitter with the line “my car was used in a murder.” Got quite a few reactions to that one. And it looked pretty cool–big black car, big black birds–might have been used in a horror flick.
Interesting thing—all those crows made mincemeat of my windshield wipers. To this day, I don’t know why they thought they were edible, but I had to replace them.

Hahaha, that needs to go in a horror story! I actually have a horror story in mind about a killer magpie – going to use it in an anthology one day 😁
