Weird Bird Behavior
Our take
Every Saturday, I embark on a familiar journey from Moanalua to the Kalihi 7/11 for my beloved musubi and coffee, a routine I’ve cherished for 18 years. However, this morning took an unexpected turn when I witnessed a peculiar incident on the King Street ramp: three birds dive-bombing a truck. Intrigued, I continued to the 7/11, only to be struck by an unsettling sight. As I walked around my car, a different bird flew directly in front of a passing vehicle and got hit. I stood there, momentarily stunned, when suddenly, another bird of a different species met a similar fate just moments later. In my 52 years, I’ve never observed such strange avian behavior in such a short span.
Every Saturday I go from Moanalua to a Kalihi 7/11 for musubi and coffee. For the past 18 years. This morning I saw 3 birds on the king street ramp dive bomb a truck. Thinking that was weird. I pull into 7/11 and I’m walking around my car and I see a different bird fly in front of a car and get hit. That made me pause. I kind of just stood there thinking about how weird it was when I saw another bird (different kind) get hit by a car going the opposite direction. I’m no bird expert but in 52 years of life I’ve never seen one bird much less 5 in a 5 minute time span die like that.
