Observation details
Conservative count. We had up to 12 for a while and then a flock of what looked like 40+ birds swirled up high, with some landing on the fence and others on the ground. Counted 26 in view at one time, but others were in the grass or just out of view over small variations in the terrain. One of the best count totals for SAC (in recent decades at least). Didn't see when we backtracked an hour later. Will upload fairly distant photos. Others got much closer photos.
