Dear Diann MacRae and Tweets;

I've seen a flock of very large birds similar to this flock once
before and I was told repeatedly that this flock was likely a flock of
migrating Sandhill Cranes.....

I don't know what type of birds these were....They had very long
wings, no visible outstretched necks and no visible trailing legs.
Their wing tips were not smooth. Wingtips of this flock had finger
like projection of
feathers much like an Eagle, but had a wingspan larger than an Eagle.
Because of their size I also compared them or thought that they may be
Turkey Vultures.....thus the meat eater moniker. I was told that they
were not likely Turkey Vultures at the time, too. So they are unk
meat eaters similar to Sandhill Cranes. LOL Idk :) Sorry if I have
confused you!
