We're seeing the same thing here on the other side of the state. My dad just saw a flock of about 75 birds just last month. I don't know if they gather together like that for warmth or what, but it's pretty crazy!

We have groups of 300 to 500 birds in the winter for the last 25 yrs and never seen any sign of disease. If fact, there numbers keep growing. I guess there always the chance...
