[TN-Bird] Sandhills on the move

This morning I have seen wave after wave of Sandhills heading south.   They 
are flying over my home in Southeast Bradley County..  Spectacular is  the best 
I can describe them.  Several groups have circled over the house  waiting to 
catch an updraft.  I really have not been able to count them but  an estimate 
would be around 500 this morning.  They have been sailing along  at a rapid 
rate except for the couple of groups searching for a good  updraft.   Great 
Birding.
