no parking


dusk in the mountains
seems like ten zillion blackbirds
and no place to park

very nice... hopefully they do not park over your car :-)

I've seen the flocks and their restless flight, it can be amazing and raucous

I enjoyed!

Even if you do find a parking place, uh, maybe you ought to give those darn blackboards time to, you know, move on. Haha

I love the flocks of migrating birds flying together like schools of fish in the blue sea of the sky. Glad you remembered that piece of the fall picture. ebm

Capt. Ron, thank you! These birds fly over the valley and the mountains! Haven't seen any in awhile, guess they've all gone to FL for the winter!!

EBM, Thank you for responding. I appreciate it very much. Sadly, morst of the birds that were here are gone for the winter. We still have bluejays, chickadees and a few other varieties. They stay all winter. And they are already eating us out of house and home!!

Fine writing, used to see such sight in my childhood. It’s tough to see such flocks of birds in an ever growing city tough.

Prasad Nataraj - because I now live in the country, it's incredible what I can see. I used to live in the city and only saw dogs and cats!!
The most amazing sight is the number of stars in the sky. When we first moved here I would stay up many nights just to look at them!
