I paid a visit to the roost at the Bendix plant in Bowling Green late
yesterday, and it was simply stunning. The birds roost in rows of trees right
next to the road, so you can literally stand a few feet from them.
There were easily 50,000 birds, and perhaps twice that.
I recommend that you wear a hat.

Subject: [birdky] Video from Prospect Purple Martin Roost
I shot a bit of video (and way too many photos) Saturday night at the Prospect
Purple Martin roost. I thought I'd share for anyone who hasn't gotten out to
see the spectacle.
