Unsure

I'm not sure if these are cranes or not.  They were really high in the sky and I couldn't hear anything because the wind is so strong today.  

I was out without my glasses so this was very much a hope-for-the.best-Blip.  There were several Fotos that featured only clouds. (You may have to go large to see anything.  The black blobs are the birds.  The blue thing is the sky and the white and grey things are clouds.)

Is this the earliest I've seen them?
