holy moly. the woods behind my pasture is filled with loud birds

[magical thyme]

3. too big for starlings.

I walked down to see if I could catch a glimpse. I saw several medium size birds fly through the woods. They looked black and some of the individual calls sounded like crows. There are other calls mixed in, too. Probably multiple flocks. There is a marshpond less than 1/2 mile in the woods, plus there is a wild game processor not too far either, so we're a local gathering place for birds of all types.

I've had hummingbirds and wild turkeys peeking at me through my windows on occaision.
