A flock of birds, likely Canada Geese (*Branta canadensis*), is seen flying in a V formation against a clear blue sky. The birds have a distinctive shape with long necks, broad wings, and black and white coloration. This formation helps reduce air resistance and conserves energy during long migrations. Each bird adjusts its position and wing rhythm, creating an aerodynamic advantage for the group.
