Saw a flock of cowbirds along the sidewalk at Keele and Steeles this morning, around 9am.  

They were picking at the grass and whatever seeds or bugs hang around in there.  

There was about 30 or 40 birds.  Could they be migrating? or just a flock??  Also, where do cowbirds go if they migrate?

Cowbirds, like other Blackbirds, gather in flocks during the fall before migrating south, mostly to southern United States, I think.
