Awe inspiring. Period.

No words to describe this…sit for one minute in awe.  Well, perhaps there is one word to describe it…and it was the only word spoken on this clip: “Dude!”

    darn it! I Thought one was going to hit the camera. Sorry, it must be my Bent sense of humour.

    Wow. That’s a lot of bird poop. Those poor fish will be cleaning up for a week after that.

    OH NO! This brings back memories of the Alfred Hitchcock movie with Tippi Hedren, The Birds. That movie forever made me afraid of large flocks of birds. If I was there and witnessed these flying geese, I would be freaking out.
    BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!

  7. Wow … amazing. Can only imagine how loud it would have been if actually on the shoreline

  8. Holy cow. Looked like large-scale confetti filling the air. “Dude!” indeed…. ;-)

  9. I live not too far from Merrill Creek, New Jersey; I’m in eastern Pennsylvania. They migrate here about this time of year, but I haven’t seen them yet. This proves they are close, and we will enjoy them soon.

    Dave,

    This is awe inspiring indeed, and what a small world it is! This reservoir is one of my kayaking spots 10 minutes from home!

    I wish you a wonderful New Year and want to tell you again how much I enjoy your blog- every post inspires and many challenge, as well!

    Thanks,

    Karen Pawlowski

    Wow!!

    Holy geese!! Probably not a good place to o swimming.

    I love listening to the geese when they fly over..they sound like they’re gossiping and griping about a whole host of issues. So I of course, choose the subject matter and make up stories about their ongoing internal divisiveness..

  15. Pretty amazing.

  16. Unbelievable. Wow!

  17. That’s quite the spectacle. Deafening!

  18. Yes…pretty amazing and I am sure loud.

    This morning a local field was covered in sea gulls, usually it is just pigeons. This is impressive.

  20. That video is jaw-dropping … holy moly … that is a huge amount of birds.

    Reminds me of the book “Nils Holgerson” I read as a kid.
