It is believed that this count is approximately correct, i.e., 

 probably not more than a hundred birds were missed in the 

 counting-. Of course to one who is witnessing the flight, 

 without attempting to make a count, there would probably 

 come temptation to estimate them by the " thousands " ; a 

 flock of even several hundred birds presents quite an imposing 

 arrav.
