Observation details
I watched this formation come to being from a distance of 250 m. This raft of birds bunched up and lined up. They faced the WSW then took off minutes after this photo. Unfortunately I missed the spectacle. Why? I had jumped into my Jeep to drive to the beach on the northside of the lake. When I walked up to the beach all the ducks had disappeared. I searched the lake for them. They were no where to be found. So, they had taken off while I was rushing to their location.
