Summary

Birds talk to each other about everything -- where to find food, where to roost, when to migrate. What messages might they have for us? STORIES The Head We all know the old wives’ tales: don’t walk under a ladder or you’ll have bad luck; don’t step on the crack or you’ll break your mama’s back. Dan is about to discover another, more sinister omen… with deadly consequences. Thanks, Dan, for sharing your story with us! Produced by Anne Ford, original score by Maryam Qudus A Murder of Crows Mike is pretty sure he’s going crazy. Every time he sees a crow, it seems like it’s trying to tell him something: to watch out, to beware. What are they trying to warn him of? Thanks, Mike, for sharing your story with us! Produced by Alyia Yates, original score by Lauryn Newson Artwork by Teo Ducot
