So THIS explains why the tree has berries one day and no berries the next! It’s amazing to me that such a large number of birds can coordinate their movements with perfect precision. You can’t tell in the video but when they whooshed by it was SO loud.
I have a similar video in my arsenal. The sky grew black, etc.
Wow I have never seen birds do that before. Even when we had fruit trees.
Mine was Christmas Day, 2012:

Laraine Day it was the neatest thing! Bill Connelly that’s awesome – your swarm was way bigger than mine. Just amazing to see, especially in person.
Pretty sure that those are Cedar Wax Wings. They love holly tree berries. Very handsome little birds that migrate and winter around here.
Marc, they sure do put on a nice show!
Note to self: When you eventually buy a house with a yard, fill it with holly trees.
