I’m just telling you that it’s normal for birds up here to be in flocks the first two weeks of the “old” season framework. It’s not unusual.
Oh, I get it. Completely understand. And I believe you, and think that’s an accurate assessment.
Also, I’m not trying to just be an A-hole - although I can play that part pretty well too.
But………… I’ve been made aware that what we see with our eyes and hear with our ears - is just pseudoscience. Nothing more. It may be common knowledge. But that means nothing. It’s not science. And it’s not proven. Therefore - your observation - means virtually nothing.
Now - do I believe that above paragraph completely. No way. I believe there’s truth to what we see and there’s some truth to a common knowledge. When a large group of people experience something for many years - thats worth something.
