On the way to lunch I walk through "The Woodlands" at McKendree Village. Today every tree was loaded with birds, seemingly on every branch and me without my camera! As I walked back up to The Woodlands after lunch it was as if the birds said "Good Bye" as in unison thousands of birds swooped off the trees into a huge omeba-shaped black cloud and flew off to some other woodlands along their journey. It is awesome and uplifting to experience this movement in nature! (image copied from web)
