In the past week I have seen large flocks of American Crows, Dark-eyed Juncos, European Starlings, and Snow Buntings. In the last post I showed some photos of a 25-bird Pine Grosbeak flock. Yesterday, while looking in vain for a Golden Eagle, we came upon a 44-bird group of Bohemian Waxwings in a line of maple trees.

Shortly later, we came upon a flock of 59 Wild Turkeys foraging in a cornfield. Finding flocks is often just getting out there – and being at the right place at the right time.
