A shot of the middle of a migrating flock of sandhill cranes. They're large grey birds with long necks that they keep stretched straight out in front while flying, long straight bills, and long broad wings. They're flying in no particular pattern, but close enough to each other that in some cases their wingtips appear to overlap.

The #cranes are finally on the move! I counted about 625 sandhill cranes migrating past during a half-hour #bike ride around the neighborhood.
The close photo is from Bosque del Apache; the one of the flock is from my patio.
