If you told us a swarm of birds was going to take over our front yard we'd probably start fretting about Hitchcock-like scenarios. Lucky for us all, this is far less pecky. We've recently learned there's a new trend in worldwide pranks: 'flocking' someone's garden. Basically it involves planting dozens of plastic flamingos on your pal's property on the sly, for no other reason than you want them to wake up to a tropical bird-filled wonderland. In other words, it's the best surprise you could imagine, and the perfect idea for a harmless April Fools Day prank. Did we mention we're rather fond of flamingos?
