User's notes

The largest flock I've seen. Something disturbed these birds and they flew over in two waves. I counted 13 in the first photo with some out of view and 37 in the second photo, with again a few out of view so I've estimated a total of 60 birds. Most of the second wave landed in the tree tops on the southern side of the Black Mountain Road.
