just above the trees from the east to the west .. never saw anything like it before. So many I couldn't count

Editor's note: contacted observer for more details on this sighting

I estimated. I sat on the front porch for about an hour with a small widow of the sky where I had an ave of 8 in sight every few second (I counted), a constant stream. I figured hundreds a minute. Finally I decided to go out back and work in the garden. When I looked up to the cloudy sky, there was more than I could count .. for two more hours!...just above the trees and homes, headed from East to west, fluttering by. Every once in a while there would be two or three 'dancing in circles before heading onward. It was like I was the only one who noticed. So when my husband came home at 10:30 am .. I couldn't wait to tell him to look up! It was amazing. I'm still telling people about it.

We live on the shore of Lake Erie.
