Hi everyone,
I would like to pass on the experience I had Sunday afternoon. I was flying
back to Taos from Tucson, at 13K feet MSL, and between ABQ and Taos I
encountered a large flock of very large birds, probably cranes but I can’t
be sure, could have been geese, at my exact altitude. Suddenly the flock
was there, all around me, I had no time to react, fortunately they swerved
in every direction. Scared the crap out of me. So keep an eye out for
these migrating flocks this time of year. Obviously they are flying at
pretty high altitudes.
Steve
