😮 omg that is crazy, there has to be thousands of birds...there tends to be some sort of flying pattern these birds use, but what kind of birds are these? Up north at my moms, there is a certain variaty of birds that fly in very large packs..and what the lead bird does the others all follow..i have watched them..it was a large swarm of birds, going up and down and changing direction, but not as large as this...and we know geese fly with just so many in there V pattern...craziest video i have ever see..

maybe its a scene for The Birds 2 lol...if i ever seen that many at one time..i surely would be running to the safe room.

xoxoxo

I'm not entirely sure, but I think they are starlings. We get similar formations in the spring and fall here in Central PA.

styxx..my mom did call but it was short and sweet she was tired, so forgot to ask her, but yes starlings do do that also..especially when its time to get to their nests which seem to be around the water lines at my moms..she lives on a lake..so i would say your right, but will double check tonight...

great guess styxx thanks 🙂

That'll be great thanks! It would be strange if they were starlings cause I never seen them do that kind of thing. I did however, see them peck at a Hawk because it was in their vicinity.

I get the feeling that those birds might be swallows.
