Observation details
Unlikely anything other than Monk Parakeets or Nanday Parakeets. I am usually unable to distinguish their calls. I saw and heard approximately 12 Parakeets on the checklist started immediately after this one - https://ebird.org/checklist/S123822395. I have no way of knowing whether these are the same individuals, or if during this checklist, I heard multiple flocks passing over. I struggled with the number of birds to report here. The audio clearly depicts multiple calls, but as I can't be certain these are all the same birds that I saw and heard on the subsequent checklist, and I feel it is more responsible to underreport rather than overreport, I'm submitting the count as 5. I uploaded some not great audio, in case some expert can use it to determine the species. I muted a few seconds of inappropriate audio at the 1:11 mark. The annoying gunfire sounds are coming from Bedner's Farm Stand just down the road. They are either shooting air rifles or playing the sound of them to scare off birds earing their seeds, and/or their crops.
