This is a section of a larger group of mostly Starlings and probably some Red Winged Blackbirds mixed in during their Fall migration a couple of years ago after sunset.  The tree on the lower left of the image was being used to either roost or to take a short break before moving on.

Beautiful sight against that lovely rosy background. I love this kind of shot-so iconic for migration.
