Ornithophobia

Today's word of the day: Ornithophobia- an abnormal, irrational fear of birds.

I picked this word because I couldn't find a clinical term for extreme and intense hatred of birds which is what Leslie possibly suffers from. They wake her in the dead of night when she's sleeping and has prompted her to literally drive within a 5 block range to find them, upon which I'l guessing she would like to attack them with a BB gun.

Anyhow, these 2 little birdies were outside her house and one of them kept walking towards me when beckoned. I thought it was cute and wanted to feed them. Leslie on the other hand was completely abhorred to find they had crapped in front of her house.
