Hitchcock has always had that way about making seemingly harmless things into the most horrify things ever.
I recall as a small child being told, "You're too young to watch this, go play in the other room" but I watched it anyway right at the part where the woman finds that mans eyes pecked out.
I have completely loathed seagulls and black birds ever since....
I also recall reading a short story in high school that had inspired the movie, wasn't explained why the birds attacked in the story either.
