I was driving west bound on I-40 last Tuesday at about noon and saw a
large number of birds soaring in a circular fashion above the interstate.
Looked like between 50 and 100 birds. I should have noted the mile marker
but I didn't. It was between Cookeville and Carthage somewhere. I wasn't
able to stop and check it out further so I am not sure what they were but I
think I have heard of hawks gathering like this during migration. I did see
one hawk sitting in a tree as I zoomed by but am unsure what it was but it
seems to support that feeling that these were all hawks. I am sure they
weren't vultures
Sound reasonable?
