Observation details
First bird took off at 0505, last bird 0617. Up to 30 birds per second during heaviest traffic for several minutes. Easterly wind causes mayhem on the 'runway' with many birds stopping, wanting to take-off into the wind, but the natural flow of traffic faces them to the west. Entire clearing was eventually covered in birds with no where to run for take off except over the top of other birds. Several collisions on the ground and a few in the air.
