Sometimes flocks of large birds can be seen in GE if the resolution is very good. This thread is a place to post them or to link to bird flocks already posted.
Note: Sometimes imagery changes make the birds go away. Not to worry. With the Historic Imagery tool, you should still be able to see them.

Awesome find! To be able to resolve single birds from outer space! Incredible!

A LINK to a flock of gulls near Levittown, N.Y. Not in flight or formation, but all of those white specs on the water next to the landfill have to be gulls.
The new images are pretty amazing rez. Im not positive on this but it "looks" just like a bird with roughly a 4' wingspan flying between some cows. Or a perfectly shaped and located piece of dust on the lens of the camera.
