Don Don MacNeill donmacneill@eastlink.ca ----- Original Message ----- From: V Redden To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca Sent: Wednesday, May 11, 2011 12:21 PM Subject: [NatureNS] Birds in Alberta Hi everyone I was in Alberta this month and the day I was leaving I saw a huge (maybe hundreds) flock of birds circling overhead. I did not get a close look ( My binoculars were packed and they were injured, probably fatally, by Air Canada in my flight out, ) so I can only describe their behaviour. These were large birds with a wide wing span, they circled around each other like a flock of sandpipers in migration. They called but I can't describe that. Many swans and geese flocks had been migrating in the previous days. The flock stayed in the same area just circling and reforming. I can't discount gulls although I have never seen gulls do this. I would appreciate any comments. i know it's not NS related but many list subscribers are great travellers. Thanks for all the replies.
