Observation details
The number of birds on this field and in the air was breathtaking -- this is a conservative estimate, considering all of the gulls on the ground and in the air. There was no way to capture the enormity of this mega-flock without a wide-angle lens, which neither of us had, but we did take a dramatic video.
