Crows displace geese

There was some nice light (and snow cover) this afternoon
so I took my camera outside.  I was too late for the neat
clouds but then I noticed what appeared to me to be a lot
of crows flying north at at medium-high altitude -- higher
than the local committees.  So I squeezed off a few shots:

As the crows disappeared I noticed a V of geese coming
south and got a shot, then switched to video mode before
they got overhead:

The 2nd .MOV is with a better codec, but older QT players
can't play it.  Things got quiet enough toward the end
that you can hear the geese.

There, something besides gear opinions!
