Uninvited guests for tonight

Oct. 29, 2011 - Orlando, FL - Dusk time - twilight! A huge flock of big size birds are struggling just at these moments to find space for tonight on the top of our oak trees canopies. Maybe 50 or even more. the sky are covered with flipping noisy wings, large wingspans, desperately looking for landing space. Never ever did I see such gathering in my yard!
they are too heavy to land on the trees and slips all the time, all branches are leaning down heavily. The trees acorns are falling like heavy hail. There's really no room on our trees for such big birds and such a huge flock.

It seems as night caught them unprepared and they are landing here as an act of despair!
Darkness caught them before they could reach their destination.
The loud neighborhood dogs barks, including our Rex's doesn't scare them away.
Us being outside and filming them does not stop their attempts to find the right branches.
the sound of breaking limps at our yard is unheard of. They, the birds, made some strange distressed sounds - but they probably had no other choice - but to quickly settle for tonight on the nearest trees.
It is pitch dark now! the canopies are full with huge birds. from time to time I hear a loud sound of flipping wings.
I bet seeing them flying at dawn will be even greater!!! I will set up my clock to 4am so I can witness such. Not everyday I have such overnight guests in my yard!!!!
I just googled and found out that by their wings shape and their large wingspans it might be the Osprey...or Vulture? due to the dusk it was hard to determine the birds color.
It's relatively quite now. beside falling oak acorns from time to time no sound - no one can guess the big number of birds hiding in our canopies tonight.
Acorns are still falling...
Phenomena!!!
so 4am it is, or maybe earlier????
