Description
The true story of the greatest conspiracy in U.S. history - and how to fight back.
Have you ever seen a baby pigeon? You haven't, have you? No one has, not in many, many years. They used to be everywhere. That's because they come out of the factory as adults.
In the 1970s, the United States government killed off the entire bird population and replaced them with robotic bird replicas that are used for mass surveillance. Birdwatching now goes both ways.
In Birds Aren't Real, whistleblowers Peter McIndoe and Connor Gaydos trace the roots of a political conspiracy so vast and well-hidden that it almost seems like an elaborate hoax. These hero Bird Truthers have risked life and limb to spread the word.
In Australia, we must save our kookaburras, our cockatoos and our bin chickens from turning into spies for the politicians in Canberra. The truth is out there: will you stand and fight before it's too late?

About the Author
Peter McIndoe is a son, a scholar, and Public Information Officer for the world-renowned Birds Aren't Real movement. Peter came to the truth in 2017 through a combination of prophetic dreams and independent research. He has spent the past 7 years of his life on the road, growing the movement through rallies and grassroots organizing, and will possibly save the world. Connor Gaydos was born in an undisclosed location far from civilization. His father was the founder of Birds Aren't Real in the 1970s. Connor has given his entire life to the people of America. He knows the risk he's taking by attaching his name to this book, and asks that if you work at the CIA, you take a few deep breaths and spare his life.
