Bravo to our friend, Roland, of @calgaryrasc.bsky.social . He's done such a beautiful job with the local radar images of birds migrating in Alberta. Thank you, Roland for this effort and for sharing it!
Monday was another day when many flocks of migratory birds flew by the wind farm south of East Coulee. #abstorm #birds #ornithology
