Caught this shot near the lakeshore last summer. I played with it to give it a surreal feeling in editing because it reminded me of Alfred Hitchcock's movie, "The Birds".

You're absolutely right, it has the same eerie feeling as Hitchcock's The Birds and I think the reason is because they used similar closeup angled shots when filming to give the illusion of being attacked by the birds. The closeups also camouflaged the fact there weren't that many birds to begin with. But, you definitely captured that illusion. I also like the composition/design of your image and the line of clouds along the bottom to counter balance the birds and give the feeling of height/depth.
Like the birds but the overall image is very grey and lacking brightness - The round flare type item at the top is distracting as too is the bird who's wing is out of the frame.
