Speaker 1: Tired of the everyday grind, every dream of a life
Speaker 1: of romantic adventure, want to get away from it all.
Speaker 2: We offer you.
Speaker 3: Escape, Escape, designed to free you from the four walls
Speaker 3: of today for a half hour of high adventure.
Speaker 1: You are in a farmhouse on the southern coast of England.
Speaker 1: The autumn countryside around you desolate and bleak, and you
Speaker 1: know that in the dusk outside, waiting patiently for you,
Speaker 1: silently watching for you, is an enemy from whom there
Speaker 1: may be no escape.
Speaker 3: Listen now, as Escape brings you daf Nativo Yer story
Speaker 3: The Birds.
Speaker 4: On Assemble the third The wind changed overnight, and it
Speaker 4: was winter. Until then, the autumn had been mellow soft,
Speaker 4: the earth was rich where the plow had turned it.
Speaker 4: I didn't do the plowing, No, my wartime disability had
Speaker 4: seemed that they gave me mostly the lighter repair jobs
Speaker 4: to do in the three days a week that I
Speaker 4: worked at the farm. A bank to build up, or
Speaker 4: a gate to mend. At the far end of the peninsula,
Speaker 4: where the sea surrounded the farm land on either side,
Speaker 4: Deborah and I had taken a cottage up here to
Speaker 4: try again for the sake of the children, and it
Speaker 4: seemed to be working fairly well.
Speaker 2: I enjoyed my work on the farm.
Speaker 4: It was pleasant to pause at midday to eat the
Speaker 4: lunth the dead had prepared and brought to me. We'd
Speaker 4: sit there on the cliff while I ate, and we'd
Speaker 4: watch the birds, and many of them that, yes, were
Speaker 4: the autumns better than spring for watching them. Oh oh, well,
Speaker 4: in the spring they're content, they're full of purposely, know
Speaker 4: where they're going, there's no delay. But then an autumn
Speaker 4: it's different. The birds that don't, my grate, seem to
Speaker 4: follow the pattern of their own. Captain humm, great flocks
Speaker 4: of them here on the peninsula, restless, uneasy, wheeling, circling,
Speaker 4: coming to rest and flying again. The land birds and
Speaker 4: the girls down there in the bay, a strange sort
Speaker 4: of rhythm in their movements.
Speaker 5: They don't really go anywhere. Doesn't seem to be any
Speaker 5: purpose to it.
Speaker 4: No, well, if there is, we don't see it. They're restlessness,
Speaker 4: and they're more restlessness year than usual, seems to me.
Speaker 4: You know, this morning two girls flew so closely knocked off.
Speaker 6: My captain said, yesterday when the school bus letter off,
Speaker 6: there was quite a few of them overhead.
Speaker 5: As if they'd been followed.
Speaker 4: Oh well, I suppose it means a hard winter. They
Speaker 4: always seem to know. Perhaps a message comes to them
Speaker 4: in autumn, a warning about winter and about death.
Speaker 2: Nat.
Speaker 4: Many of them will die, and I think they know it.
Speaker 4: Perhaps they feel they have to spill their motion out
Speaker 4: before they die, like people who know their time is
Speaker 4: up and run about stupidly driving themselves.
Speaker 5: We shouldn't talk like that, Nat, That that black side
Speaker 5: of you that stayed up the trouble between us before.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Debby, but it's come over me lately as
Speaker 4: I've watched them, the land birds mingling with the sea
Speaker 4: birds in a sort of strange, unnatural partnership. Land and
Speaker 4: See Life and Death. At night, it turned colder and
Speaker 4: the wind strengthened. Around two in the morning, the sound
Speaker 4: of it beating against the house woke me up. I
Speaker 4: lay there with this slow, even breathing of Debby beside me,
Speaker 4: and I thought of Jill and Johnny in the room
Speaker 4: across the hall. We seemed safe, secure, And then I
Speaker 4: heard it tapping.
Speaker 2: On the window.
Speaker 4: First I thought it was a loose shutterer, and then
Speaker 4: I realized it wasn't. I got out of bed into
Speaker 4: the window opened it. Suddenly something brushed against my hand
Speaker 4: and jamped my knuckles, and I'm gone over the roof
Speaker 4: and behind the cottage. Hm M, yes, what's it? Uh,
Speaker 4: it's alright, Debby. It was a bird. I don't know
Speaker 4: what kind burden.
Speaker 2: Mm.
Speaker 4: Wind must have driven it against the window sill. And
Speaker 4: my hand's wet. It's blood. M. Little beggar drew blood.
Speaker 5: Good to sleep n H.
Speaker 2: Must have been frightened and stabbed at me in the dark.
Speaker 2: If the mad.
Speaker 5: The window seems you, it distract me.
Speaker 2: I've already seen you. It's some bird trying to get in. M.
Speaker 5: Send them away. I can't sleep with that noise.
Speaker 2: H ll ugh with you. But why little straight with
Speaker 2: my face out got away? Did you see that?
Speaker 4: There were half a dozen this time they went for me,
Speaker 4: tried to peck my eyes.
Speaker 2: I'm not making it up there.
Speaker 5: It's jill. Don't see what's the matter?
Speaker 2: Right comming jail? Keep flying? Where's Johnny?
Speaker 5: Quick?
Speaker 2: Get the children out of here? And get the children
Speaker 2: out of here and shut the door quick. I pushed
Speaker 2: them out of the room, and now I was alone
Speaker 2: with the birds.
Speaker 4: I seized the blanket and I used as a weapon,
Speaker 4: sweeping it right and the left, and I.
Speaker 2: Could hear the thud of bodies.
Speaker 4: But they've kept coming after the jumping my hands my head,
Speaker 4: trying for my eyes with beats as sharp as pointed forks,
Speaker 4: and I wrapped.
Speaker 2: The blanket around my head, beat apout with my bare
Speaker 2: hands blindly. I don't know how long I bought them.
Speaker 4: Finally, the beating of wings lessened, and then but still
Speaker 4: I unwrapped the blanket from my face. The cold, gray
Speaker 4: dawn had seeped into the room. The floor was littered
Speaker 4: with the tiny corpses, the birds, robins, finches, sparrows, locks.
Speaker 4: Some had last feathers in the fight, and the others
Speaker 4: had blood, my blood on their beaks. Sickened, I went
Speaker 4: to the window, and the fierce sea broke harshly in
Speaker 4: the day. But there was not a bird in sight.
Speaker 4: Not a sparrow chattered in the hedge, No early thrush
Speaker 4: or blackbird pecked on the grass for worms. There was
Speaker 4: no sound at all but the east wind and the sea.
Speaker 2: Net Ah, I'm all right, deady.
Speaker 5: I didn't know what look covered with flood.
Speaker 2: Some of it's the birds. Look on the floor. He
Speaker 2: fifty I counted them horrible.
Speaker 4: Come on, Dannie, I'll clean the room later when I
Speaker 4: had more stomach for it.
Speaker 5: It must have been ghastly.
Speaker 6: For the children, all right, Yes, I put Joe to
Speaker 6: work making tea Johnny's narbd just no sleep.
Speaker 2: Not why the bird?
Speaker 4: Well, it must be the weather, the sudden change confused them.
Speaker 2: It has to be that the.
Speaker 5: Tee is ready. Mummy. Oh good? Did you drive away
Speaker 5: the birds?
Speaker 2: Yes? They're all gone now, do you.
Speaker 5: I hope they won't come again. Perhaps if we put
Speaker 5: bread runs for them outside the window, they eat that
Speaker 5: and fly away. I've already had breakfast. I'd better hurry.
Speaker 5: I'll be late for the school bus.
Speaker 2: Bush. I'll walk with you to the road.
Speaker 5: Joe, Yeah, I think that'd be a good idea. I'll
Speaker 5: go get my cat book.
Speaker 2: I didn't want it to walk and down.
Speaker 5: That they they wouldn't come back again.
Speaker 4: I'll go over to the farm and find out if
Speaker 4: they heard anything during the night, if all the windows
Speaker 4: and doors closed, they'd be just to be on the
Speaker 4: safe side.
Speaker 2: Hello, anyone about Hello, mister Hock, the mister around, Missus Trigg.
Speaker 2: Summer's the ball.
Speaker 5: But can you tell me where this call is coming
Speaker 5: from Russia. I've never seen such a change, and it's
Speaker 5: going on the wireless, says, something to do with the
Speaker 5: Arctic Circle.
Speaker 4: We didn't turn on the wireless this morning. The fact
Speaker 4: is we had trouble in.
Speaker 5: The night, Oh kitties poorly.
Speaker 4: No, no, not exactly. No, we had some trouble with birds.
Speaker 4: Why it sounds absurd, but they flew in the window
Speaker 4: and attacked us.
Speaker 5: Attacked you. No, mister Hockins, I'm not making it up.
Speaker 2: Missus Trigg.
Speaker 4: There are a fifty dead head's on the floor of
Speaker 4: the children's bedroom.
Speaker 5: Foreign birds.
Speaker 2: No, no, the kind you see about here every day.
Speaker 5: Really will you ought to write up and ask the
Speaker 5: man just to guard you, and they haven't.
Speaker 2: Answer for it. Good morning, Huckins.
Speaker 5: Mister Howkins has been telling a box of birds last night.
Speaker 5: The pieces the attacked him.
Speaker 2: Attack you? Sure? Quiet? I heard of the thing I
Speaker 2: did before. Hungry maybe looking for food? You put out
Speaker 2: some crumbs, Yes, of course, I'll be up tomorrow as usual.
Speaker 4: Good morning, ordinary birds, he says, attacked him.
Speaker 2: Now what did he take us for coming around with
Speaker 2: a story like that? Strange one?
Speaker 4: He is with our superior airs, You see the look
Speaker 4: he gave us when he didn't swallow his story attacked him.
Speaker 2: I think he reads too many of those.
Speaker 5: Nat, did you find out anything at a part?
Speaker 4: No, the trigs brilliant advice was to put out some crumbs.
Speaker 4: Debbie Eye looked all around this morning. There's not a
Speaker 4: single bird in sight outdoors.
Speaker 5: Where they've gone.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: The Trigs had no trouble last night.
Speaker 2: Not only that they clearly thought I was imagining it. Oh.
Speaker 4: I heard Trig mutter something about my superior airs and
Speaker 4: reading too many books as I walked away.
Speaker 2: Nothing's real to those clods until it hits them over
Speaker 2: their head.
Speaker 6: Well, they're nice enough people, ned, it's just that they're
Speaker 6: isolated up here.
Speaker 2: Well, that's certainly the polite word for it.
Speaker 5: I haven't been able to face going into the children's room.
Speaker 5: They've birds.
Speaker 4: Oh guess I'll go and clean it up. The least
Speaker 4: I can do is give the little beggars a decent burial.
Speaker 4: I dropped the dead birds into a sack and went
Speaker 4: down to the beach to bury them. The wind was
Speaker 4: bitter cold. I dug a pit in the sand with
Speaker 4: my heel and started to empty the sack.
Speaker 2: Into it.
Speaker 4: But the wind caught the birds and whirled them along
Speaker 4: the shore, and there was something ugly in the sight
Speaker 4: that the tide would take them when it turned. I
Speaker 4: looked out at the crested breakers, and then I saw them,
Speaker 4: the gulls, out there, riding the seas.
Speaker 2: Thousands, tens of thousands.
Speaker 4: They rose and fell in the trough of the sea,
Speaker 4: like a mighty fleeted anchor, waiting for the turn of
Speaker 4: the tide.
Speaker 2: Waiting.
Speaker 4: They stretched as far as my eye could reach. They
Speaker 4: covered the sea. I started up the steep park home,
Speaker 4: almost running. Someone should know that that someone should be told,
Speaker 4: But who? And then as I opened the front door,
Speaker 4: I saw Deddy beside the world.
Speaker 2: It's listening and even attacking individuals.
Speaker 4: It is thought that the Arctic airstream is causing the
Speaker 4: birds to migrate south in immense numbers, and that intense
Speaker 4: hunger may drive them to attack human beings. Householders are
Speaker 4: warned to see to their windows, doors and chimneys, and
Speaker 4: to take all precautions.
Speaker 2: For the safety of their children.
Speaker 4: Further bulletins will.
Speaker 2: Be issued later.
Speaker 5: They've been repeating it every few minutes since you left.
Speaker 2: Well, perhaps now those empty headed idiots at the farm.
Speaker 5: Will no you s almost gad Oh, don't talk.
Speaker 2: Rock Deby. It's just that when people with half a
Speaker 2: brain try to tell me.
Speaker 5: That you forget that superior attitude of yours even.
Speaker 2: Now, don't choose that word superior to me. I'm sick
Speaker 2: of it, so are you.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry these things made me a little nervy.
Speaker 2: I guess yes, I I'm sorry too much.
Speaker 5: One of the bulletins said, the birds seemed to be
Speaker 5: waiting for what.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: They said, the birds are hungry. What you doing the hammer?
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get some boards and see to the doors
Speaker 4: and windows as they tell you to.
Speaker 5: You think they could break in with the windows shut,
Speaker 5: the sparrows and robins and such, How could they?
Speaker 4: I wasn't thinking about the smaller birds. I was thinking
Speaker 4: about the gulls.
Speaker 2: The gulls, Debby.
Speaker 4: Have you ever been close enough to get a good
Speaker 4: look at a gull's beak? There must be one hundred
Speaker 4: thousand of them out there riding the sea.
Speaker 2: Waiting.
Speaker 4: The rest of the morning, I worked upstairs boarding the
Speaker 4: bedroom windows, and I wondered whether they'd take these precautions
Speaker 4: up at the farm. I doubted it. It'd probably a
Speaker 4: big joke to the Triggs. But according to the wire
Speaker 4: as it was no joke. At first, some of the
Speaker 4: bulletins had been light in Tourne, But as the morning
Speaker 4: wore on, the concern in the announcer's voice.
Speaker 2: Became more and more apparent. Well after I finished upstairs,
Speaker 2: I took the rest.
Speaker 4: Of the lumber down, boarded up the lower floor windows.
Speaker 5: What they ought to do is call the army out
Speaker 5: and shoot the birds that would soon scare them off.
Speaker 2: Debbie, Uh, how are we off for food now?
Speaker 6: Net?
Speaker 5: Whatever?
Speaker 4: Next?
Speaker 2: No? Never mind? What have you got in the larder?
Speaker 5: Shutting me tomorrow? You know that I don't keep uncooked
Speaker 5: food hanging about. It goes off. But I can put
Speaker 5: some things in tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Tomorrow. It's only three in the afternoon and it's almost dark.
Speaker 5: What I yes, the sky looked so heavy, Net, what's
Speaker 5: the matter? You've gone quite quite?
Speaker 2: Look the tides turned, the gulls they've risen, circling over
Speaker 2: the sea. Not a sun from them. Net. I'm going
Speaker 2: for Jill. I'll wait for it the bus stop. You
Speaker 2: keep Johnny inside and keep the door shut.
Speaker 4: Outside. I looked at a weapon and a hole was
Speaker 4: all I could find, and I went to the top
Speaker 4: of the hill and waited. The surf was booming below,
Speaker 4: and a smudge rose behind the clay hills in the distance.
Speaker 4: It widened, divided and spread north east south west. It
Speaker 4: was a vast cloud of birds and passed close by,
Speaker 4: heading inland up country.
Speaker 2: They had no business with the people here on the peninsula.
Speaker 4: Rooks, crows, jack doors, magpies, birds that usually preyed upon
Speaker 4: the smaller species, But this afternoon they were bound on
Speaker 4: some other mission. They've been given the towns. I thought,
Speaker 4: they know what they have to do. We don't matter
Speaker 4: so much here. The gulls will serve where us the
Speaker 4: others go to the towns.
Speaker 2: And finally the buss came. When Jill got off, I
Speaker 2: took it by the hand.
Speaker 4: What's the horse do I daddy?
Speaker 2: Oh? I just bought it along. Come along now, darling,
Speaker 2: let's go home. It's cold. No hanging about them.
Speaker 5: I want to try it in to day, not to night.
Speaker 2: Now, come on, no, dordling, daddy.
Speaker 5: Look over there, Look at the girls they die in
Speaker 5: from the sea.
Speaker 4: They're so quiet, Yes, sir, do hurry, darling. Where is
Speaker 4: it trying to oh, up the country, I dare say, well,
Speaker 4: where it's warmer.
Speaker 1: Don't go so fast.
Speaker 4: I can't keep up.
Speaker 6: Horry, it goes.
Speaker 5: It is sing.
Speaker 2: You looksychy waiting sumty signal order. Nothing, Come on, you're faster.
Speaker 1: I can't go faster.
Speaker 2: Wait. Wait, there's Trigg in his two seater. Looks as
Speaker 2: though we're in for some fun hocking. Have you heard
Speaker 2: the news? Everyone's gone bird crazy, talking of nothing else.
Speaker 2: I'm going to take a crack at them with my gun.
Speaker 2: Could you run Jill home first? Ayes, of course, not
Speaker 2: room for you too, I'm afraid that's all. I just
Speaker 2: get Jill home, Get in, Julia. Are you like to
Speaker 2: come shooting with me? No thanks? Have you boarded your windows?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: A lot of nonsense. They like to scare you on
Speaker 2: the wireless. I'd bought them if I were. You gone,
Speaker 2: you're winded. We'll see you in the morning. Give you
Speaker 2: a gull rings.
Speaker 4: I watched Trigg drive Joe toward the cottage, and then
Speaker 4: I followed on foot. The sound made me look up.
Speaker 4: The gulls were approaching. The order had been given and
Speaker 4: the farm was their targets. The black backed gulls were
Speaker 4: leading and they were bigger birds gannets turns, and suddenly
Speaker 4: one of them flow up, missed, rose it drive again,
Speaker 4: and then came the other six, seven, a dozen. I
Speaker 4: dropped the whole, covered my head with my arms and
Speaker 4: ran towards the cottage. They kept coming at it from
Speaker 4: the air with beating wings. Each stab of a swooping
Speaker 4: big torn a fresh.
Speaker 2: I had to keep them from my eyes. With each
Speaker 2: diver it came over, and they had no thought for themselves.
Speaker 2: When they missed, they crashed, bruised and broken.
Speaker 4: On the ground. And as I ran, I stump kicking
Speaker 4: herself hardies in front of me. Neither aimed at better,
Speaker 4: closer to my eyes, closer, And then I wished the
Speaker 4: door of the cottage, and then above me I saw
Speaker 4: the gannet poised against the sky for his dye.
Speaker 2: The girls drew back only the huge gannet.
Speaker 4: The wings folded suddenly to its body, and it looped
Speaker 4: like a stone at me.
Speaker 2: The door opened and I flung myself in a canet.
Speaker 2: He just put my skull. Yes, thanks quite the woundresser.
Speaker 2: Are the children from the other room.
Speaker 5: I didn't want them to see you that way? Your
Speaker 5: hands are the worst.
Speaker 2: I'll be all right, we'd better all sleep here in
Speaker 2: the kitchen tonight.
Speaker 5: Now bring down the mattresses, all fix something tasty for
Speaker 5: supper and sound What is it?
Speaker 2: The birds crowding against the outside of the house trying
Speaker 2: to find a way in net don't they can't get in?
Speaker 2: I tell you they cannot get in. Those boards will hold?
Speaker 6: How long?
Speaker 5: How long?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I turn on the waas I've bound them out.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yes, better, yes, anything so I can't hear that's poverty.
Speaker 2: It's only the food that weires. Mid Debbie.
Speaker 4: Now, I've noticed that the birds come in with the tide.
Speaker 4: But the tide will go out about nine to night,
Speaker 4: and we should have a lull of about six hours.
Speaker 4: I could slip out during that time and go to
Speaker 4: the farm see if they can give us something.
Speaker 2: Here is lucky.
Speaker 4: A national emergency was proclaimed that four o'cocks this afternoon. Yes,
Speaker 4: the measures are being taken to safeguard the lives and
Speaker 4: property of the population, but it must be understood that
Speaker 4: these are not easy to affect immediately. You the unforeseen
Speaker 4: and unharve nature of the present crisis. It is absolutely
Speaker 4: impetitive that everyone remain indoors until further noticed. Birds in
Speaker 4: vase numbers are attacking everything in sight. The population is
Speaker 4: asked to remain calm and not to panic. There would
Speaker 4: be no further transmission from any broadcasting station until seven
Speaker 4: am tomorrow.
Speaker 6: Which.
Speaker 5: Like this all over then.
Speaker 4: All over there by super Let's let's forget it.
Speaker 2: Let's all just try to get some sleep.
Speaker 5: Wake up?
Speaker 2: What time is it?
Speaker 5: The three?
Speaker 2: The tires coming again.
Speaker 5: There's been a queer smell the last two minutes. Dropperl
Speaker 5: burned feathers.
Speaker 4: Burn feathers the chimney. I got to be the fire
Speaker 4: up and coming down the chimney. Where's the oil on
Speaker 4: the shelf? Got the other just squeezing through the chimneys.
Speaker 4: Stand back and before the oil on the coals. Never
Speaker 4: get them, yeah, just get me taper, would anything it
Speaker 4: will burn? Hurry Their charred bodies get dropping down the chimney.
Speaker 4: I raped them to one side, but more came. I
Speaker 4: threw on the rest of the oil. You out, paper's
Speaker 4: on it, kindling anything. The flames roared higher, more bodies.
Speaker 4: The stench was unbearable, and I kept at it. Finally
Speaker 4: they gave up and I went over to the basin.
Speaker 2: I was sick.
Speaker 4: Around nine in the morning, the rustling ceased. I opened
Speaker 4: the door a crack. Crushed birds were deep about the house,
Speaker 4: but there was not a living bird in sight.
Speaker 2: The tide had gone out. Now was my chance to
Speaker 2: get food and fuel.
Speaker 4: I ran all the way to the farm. There was
Speaker 4: no smoke from the chimney. I came round the corner
Speaker 4: of the house and stopped in the doorway. Almost covered
Speaker 4: with dead birds, were mister and Missus Trigg.
Speaker 2: What was left of them.
Speaker 4: Beside him was his gun, beside her a broken umbrella.
Speaker 4: I loaded the two seater with all the food I
Speaker 4: could find, enough for perhaps three days, and drove back
Speaker 4: to the cottage. I told Debby that Triggs didn't need
Speaker 4: their car for a while, and it told me to
Speaker 4: take it. She said nothing, and towards nightfall the birds
Speaker 4: came back again. We sat by the fire and listened
Speaker 4: to the rustle as they crowded against the house.
Speaker 2: But this time there was a new sound.
Speaker 4: They brought up their heavier forces against us, the birds
Speaker 4: with larger beaks.
Speaker 2: I could hear the sound of tiny bits of wood
Speaker 2: being torn away.
Speaker 6: So stay to the tide turns, and then they leave.
Speaker 6: Then they'll come back again, and they'll keep coming back.
Speaker 5: Naturally. Yes, the trigs, they're dead darkly, Yes, they're all
Speaker 5: along strange. I keep closer to you than another, better
Speaker 5: that it should.
Speaker 2: Take something like this to bring it. Debbie, you may
Speaker 2: be interested to know that right now I do not
Speaker 2: give these you, beauty dot.
Speaker 5: Oh do you.
Speaker 2: I don't know, Debbie, I do not know. I listened
Speaker 2: to the sound of the spindling woods, and.
Speaker 4: I wondered how many million years of memory were stored
Speaker 4: in those little brains behind the stabbing beaks, the piercing eyes,
Speaker 4: now giving them this instinct to destroy mankind with all
Speaker 4: the depth precision.
Speaker 2: Of machines, and switched on the whirl as was dead,
Speaker 2: I reached for the cigarettes. There was only one left
Speaker 2: in the packet. I lit it. I threw the empty
Speaker 2: packet on the fire and watched it burn.
