Index of Subjects <html> <body> These were Pelicans. Wonderful flyers & "circlers" once they become airborne.<br> Angus<br><br> At 12:21 PM 5/11/2011, you wrote:<br> <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Hi everyone<br> 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. <br> I would appreciate any comments. <br> i know it's not NS related but many list subscribers are great travellers. Thanks for all the replies. <br> Virginia Redden<br> Port Howe<br><br> <br> <pre>-- A spark burns down the forest - Ovambo Namibia</pre><font face="Courier New, Courier"></font></blockquote></body> </html>
