What does tener pájaros en el alambre mean?
- Spanish (Colombia)
In English people use "The coast is clear" when nobody's around but if you want to recommend somebody to be precautious or to be on the alert because there is surveillance or the possibility to be discovered, then you may use this expression: "hay pájaros en el alambre" used by quite a few Spanish native speakers.
