Observation details
Huge flock took off from the marsh and circled overhead. Incredible display where the entire flock did a collective dive and dispearesd before the ground accompanied by a beautiful sound of the wings fluttering. They did this twice before eventually landing back in the impoundment. My original count in the field was 122, but the 126 comes from counting my best photo that encompassed all the individuals.
