This morning at about 9:20 AM I happened to see a circular echo that was rapidly expanding. I have seen similar, but smaller echoes a couple of times previously, but somewhat more to the south, approximately a mile or so NE of Markham Park (US 27/US I-595, Weston, Florida)

This echo appears to originate at the Broward-Palm Beach County Line. My guess is it that it represents flocks of waders and/or blackbirds, or possibly insects (?) departing from roosting grounds. It looks as if it is up near Holyland (STA 3/4)
