At First Glance,

the picture below,


almost looks like it is a piece of sheet music, but these photographs from Yoshinori Mizutani are more sinister than any song, 

 looking like stills from The Birds, they are slowly but surly taking over Tokyo, crows, cormorants, owls and birds of other species have invaded the metropolis in tens of thousands, they nest in utility poles and cause blackouts, steal hangers to build nests, dive-bomb on citizens and you should see the mess they make,

so Yoshinori Mizutani has been trying to highlight the issue of invasive birds in cities, and through his photography, show how the urban landscape has been made surreal by their presence and using black and white made some unusual pictures.
