A lot of...Crows?

[darin3200]

I don't what kind of bird these are but there was a lot of them.

 

[EscapeTurn]

wow, looks almost like bats to me.

 

[Peanuts]

Could be rusty blackbirds, starlings, brewer's blackbirds, or all of them mixed together. THey form huge flocks when migrating I believe. Or perchance they are indeed miny crows

I like the long exposure, gives a different impression of it. Hopefully you took cover though, wouldn't want any bird waste on the camera :|.

Anyone else have visions of "The Birds"?

Yep...I did too. Alfred would be proud. Man..there sure is a lot of birds.

 

[Meysha]

Yep! The birds... *shudder*

Looks like a sort of inverted start trails photo. How amazing! I mean look at all the birds!

Lol that movie freaks me out Everytime I see crows now I make sure I keep my distance. Nice pics.

Well, yes: there sure were many of them about.
Here, whenever we get such a crowd (there's a meeting place for them in the big oak trees in the neighbour's garden!), it usually is starlings that meet up in such enormous quantities. In some areas (such as yours) they fly, in others (Canoncan's) they walk . Very funny.

I want to say bats as well, just because of the sheer numbers...

 

[mentos_007]

[Canoncan]

I would be money that these are starlings. No LaFoto sometimes ours fly as well.
