Started seeing them on 10/11/15 by 10/13 there were hundreds of them... They are there about evening time till the sunsets it seems. Then they go away....daughter has a video of them swirling around...thought they were birds.

They came back on 10/14 just as many. They were there when we got home about 350ish. They must take off when the sun sets. It’s been in the 60’s at night. They were there on 10/15 still high numbers same time. They are hanging out in an acorn tree in the front yard our house faces east. It hasn’t been real windy. Overnight temps in the 50's-60's

We do have sunflowers in the area. Actually quite a bit this season I have never seen so many sunflowers before just randomingly growing all over the place.

Editor’s note: Observer confirmed 10/13 is the night the roost formed.
