Does every flock have a complainer?

Here's an update on Sinatra - turns out she hasn't had anything new enough to complain about until today.
I heard this awful squawking and went to investigate. First bird I see is timid little Red hanging by the coop. I asked her what all the commotion is and Henny and Penny both come running, acting very relieved to see me. They stayed on the patio while I went to see what Sinatra is on about in the back yard.
I find her on the raised garden bed, raising all kinds of hell about an invasion.
"Do you see that thing? What is it? A stranger was here and left that thing (tool box belonging to the Internet tech person who was checking out the outside line into the house). Is it a bomb? It looks dangerous. I don't like it. That stanger messed with our tree. That is OUR tree. What is going on? It is about time you got here. What are you going to do about this travesty?"
I swept the walkway and listened to her continue her tirade. As I started to close the gate between the patio and yard, Sinatra FLEW over to me to get in before the gate closed. Apparently I finally did the right thing by closing the gate and thereby making them secure.
I would be more impressed with Sinatra's alarm system against intruders, but she didn't start squawking until the tech left the back yard. But it was quite alarming and got me to come running!
