Hello Birders!

As I was headed home on I-89 last night I noticed very large flocks of
birds - or possibly one huge flock - trailing in a huge ribbon across the
sky between the Dartmouth exit and heading on back toward the construction
mess in West Lebanon.  Not being trained in such things I was curious to
see if it would make mention on the listserv today - did anyone else
experience this?  What were they?  It was quite impressive, it reminded me
how entire caves of bats will fly in mass exodus into the night skies for
feeding.  So much so, in fact, that I began to wonder if it was bats....or
what could have possibly stirred up such a movement.

Thanks for any info & please forgive if my terminology is not correct!

Curiously,

Anna Slack
