Observation details

Large white birds with black wings and pouched bills; counted individually from one photo may have been a few more out of shot. Crossed about mid lake going in direction of the Chattahoochee River. After seeing them above the lake we followed them as they headed south down the river as best we could for about 10 minutes. They would soar and circle in spots and occasionally form long loose Vs
