I believe these are birds taking off at dusk to migrate
It’s that time of year again. We’re on our 3rd group of Sandhills going over the dacha today 75-100 in each group. (Not sure they’re visible in pix)
I’m not at home, but neighbor asking me about “ those birds flying over in V formation “ = Sandhills. Eyes to the skies!! And ears!! My favorite sound!!!
Mills pond today. Do you remember what to look for? 2 birds.
So just had a very cool migration experience!!! I’m guessing 200 scissor tail flycatchers at leander HEB swirling around ti roost (pretending ti be martins).
And here’s a small challenge for you B3 grads (or anyone else): ID this bird and tell us why. What is the diagnostic field mark?
