At about 19:20, just after sunset, saw one adult come over house on the north wind, briefly land near top of a large live oak, then continued south riding the wind, staying high.

Over the next ten minutes five more came by one at time, each coming over the house, turning in the leeward eddy, then continuing south on the wind, 30-50 feet above the ground.
