Great to hear that others have observed this phenomana.  My observation was 
from my yard in October at least three years ago. It was awesome!!!.   The 
robins seemed to leave in wide huge waves from the woods behind my house around 
mid-morning and were going southward. Thousands of them for it lasted and 
lasted.  Wave after wave.  There were a few blackbirds and starlings in the 
group and it was interesting that their movement was often more south 
southwest.  While I watched for a long time.. it was just too disconcerting to 
know for exactly how long.
