In both the short story and the movie flocks of gulls, robins, crows, and sparrows join each other. This is really weird because different species of birds never work together.

The short story “Killings” is written by Andre Dubs which later recreated into a motion picture film called In the Bedroom by director Todd Field in 2001.
