Believe it or Not...But, It's true!

I'm fairly sure I know why those birds were acting so strangely, but it would be helpful if I knew where you lived if you don't mind saying. The name of the State will do, you don't have to get specific...

Maybe the poor things are sick. Animals that show no fear like that are most likely sick. West nile has taken a toal on our birds.

Alright; given your location my thoughts fit nicely. I'd say what you saw was a flock of early migrants that were blown inland by the recent hurricanes and tropical storms. This happens quite regularly during hurricane season every year..Birds who have been rerouted by gale force winds often lose their way along their migration route. Often they are confused, starving, tired and severely stressed out. Sadly; many don't survive..

From the account you've given about how they were acting, this certainly seems to indicate that might be what happened..
