Saw a fantastic sight in the Camargue yesterday at dusk from the car. Many hundreds of what I took to be grey herons flying somewhere in long lines, clouds and Vs. Assumed they would be flying to a roost, but didn't know Grey Herons roosted together as I usually see them on their own. It was difficult to make out from the moving vehicle with the bins, but I thought they had the right colouring and shape for grey heron, or purple heron I suppose. Is this typical for Grey Heron?
