    Really beautiful patterns in the sky. Here in N.C. we have migrating birds that fly over us every January or February. They're high enough they wouldn't hit a biker. They usually fly in the same direction and it took, one year, about 35 minutes for them to fly over. Must have been a million of them. Amazing.

    We get the migrating Geese and we have starlings here also but have never seen a swarm of Starlings like that before. Wouldn't that be a mess getting tangles up in a swarm of birds riding down the freeway.

    We have the the starlings that swarm. thousands of them about 4 weeks ago. They were swarming over the beach on the north shore of Long Island. Not as dramatic as that video though! Also, the Monarch butterflies you see in Texas probably passed over Long Island. They come from Canada and travel all the way to Mexico and even further south. Nature is amazing.

    Maybe with global warming we will see less birds going south.:rolleyes: Just kidding! Speaking of Monarch butterflies. I used to live in Pacific Grove, Ca. (got married there) and there is a spot where there are millions of them every year. They hang off the trees like leaves. P.G. is world famous for them.
