Title: Large flock north of Eaton Centre
Post by: dodo on December 01, 2011, 11:13:23 PM

I don't know what kind of birds they are but recently I have seen a very large flock swooping back and forth  just north of the Eaton Centre.I see them every day when I walk by at about 4:30. I have not seen them landing anywhere so I would guess they must be feeding on something.

I believe they are European Starlings you are seeing.  There was a photo of them on the Weather Network's website recently and they were flying just behind the tall billboard over the building on the north side of Dundas.
