Where was The Birds (1963) filmed?

3 locations on the HorrorMeet Atlas.

• Potter School

  The Bodega schoolhouse where Melanie sits smoking while the crows silently pile up on the jungle gym behind her. Private property, best seen from Bodega Lane.

• St. Teresa of Avila Church

  The 1860 white clapboard church standing just in front of the schoolhouse in Hitchcock's shots. Hitchcock went to Mass here during the shoot.

• The Tides Wharf

  The dockside restaurant where the townspeople argue about the attacks and the gas station goes up outside. The owner made Hitchcock name the town Bodega Bay before he would allow filming.
