Starling Murmuration Information UK
This video was filmed by retired water worker Simon Waters, 61, at the RSPB Minsmere Nature Reserve, in Suffolk - www.deadlinenews.co.uk/2018/0...
I get to enjoy a smaller murmeration every night at dusk that I love to watch, but I've never seen one of this magnitude. What I've observed though is that they are gathering up the flock to roost, every night as the light starts to drop they murmerate, and the whole time it gets bigger and bigger as small flocks of starlings join the mass before bed time. All the small groups of local starlings are just a tiny part of one big flock. They say they mumurate to avoid predators such as falcons and hawks, I'm sure that safety in numbers is a colossal factor, but I have never seen a raptor near my local flock, yet they do it every night. My theory is that it's like a big beacon in the sky to help everyone find their way home.
So beautiful ❤️
Just incredible
This was my birthday and i love this so much :)))
What a Hollowed display of one of God's infinite mysteries. I wonder how the starling is feeling while blissfully wollowing in the midst of the wind. Amazing...just absolutely incredible
Nice music. Bravo!
Thanks for your video and the very beautiful music
Soo beautiful... thank you for sharing 😍
NATURES BEAUTY AT ITS BEST !!!
Absolutely love this - this is the power of the collective
Beautiful
Thank you
This is so beautiful it made me cry. I love the piano music too. Starlings are such intelligent birds. I fed some recently just scraps when I met them at a market. They were so intelligent and so quick, all standing each in their spot spaced out so I could throw them bits in turn to be fair and keep the peace. Then some would even jump up and catch the bits in mid-air they were so quick with rapid-response precision reactions. They had so much character chirping and whistling. I read they come together to British shores for these murmurations from all over Europe and even Central Asia. I know scientists say they do this because of predators but I believe it's far more than that. I feed pigeons in the town where I live and I know they fly and flock together when they are fed when they are happy and content. They all fly together as a flock to show their unity and coordination as a species. I believe when all the starlings gather and flock in these giant murmurations involving 1,000s of birds this is to show their spiritual joy and unity and love for each other collectively as a bird species. It is beautiful and harmonious because the birds are showing us their collective congregation and bird soul. That is a truly awesome ritual these birds have created that is an honour for humans to observe. 🙏✌😊🕊
That's pretty heavy for a bird species. I think you're imputing some human qualities on them. I wouldn't say it's beyond their level to consider it fun. Schools of fish do the same. Otters clearly have a good time when they play. Why not birds?
@@tonykonig2068 I believe they flock and fly like that for protection against predators,for one thing. It's much harder for a falcon to pick out one bird in a moving flock like that..I agree people do tend to put human qualities to animals.I doubt they do it for fun though, birds don't waste their precious energy.Just my opinion.
this music works so well with this video
Parfaite capture qui révèle la Gloire du Créateur et la splendeur de la Création. Merci.
Beautiful
Thanks for sharing
Amazing and beautiful. Drone shows are eventually gonna blow this away
Magnifique merçi ❤
Exceptionally beautiful! Orchestrated by nature
So beautiful ♥️
No leader, all one spontaneous dance of life arriving at the source, to replenish.💚
Obrigado.
Bonitos🇧🇷
Uncanny how they can sync their individual movements to mass together in such stunning amorphous and ever-changing shapes. All to fool a predator. Usually one hawk that can’t be seen on the videos.
So beautiful 😍❤❤ this made me tear up. I love birds🐦🐦
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@GerritStassyns Thank you for sharing this!
My pleasure!
Спасибо за прекрасный релакс... Жаль, что коротко.... Самые тёплые пожелания здоровья и счастья 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹👍👍👍
Большое спасибо за добрые слова
Graceful, breathtaking. Music is perfect with the video.

gorgeous sublime! thanks for this gift of the nature! greetings from Chile 🇨🇱 we have a lots of bird 🦅 in our long and narrow country.
Thank you Sole & greetings from Belgium!
@@GerritStassyns before this quarantine l was with my husband to 🇧🇪 l miss travel a lotsss!!! like a bird 🦅 I live close to Cordillera de Los Andes so l watch every day a Condor and Eagles 🦅 is really relaxing! thanks excellent week! Soledad.
Just WOW!!! If only humans worked together in life this way it would be so much easier
Reflect on how many people are involved in your next cup of tea
Hive mind. We can do that. Just haven’t
@@mitchelltaylor2567 I don't drink tea 🙂
Yes United we stand Divided we fall...definately against avian raptors...lol! except we cant fly...we would all take to the air and SPLAT!
ummm, we already do work together . . . . take one more step further back to get beyond binaries like liberal/conservative. We're essentially doing the same thing.
17 February is my birthday.., and this video is amazing amazing

Many thanks!!
You wrote beautiful music to go along with your beautiful video!
Thank you very much!
@Gerrit Stassyns you’re very welcome! I also use Logic Pro. For years, I just used virtual instruments, but last month I finally connected my synthesizers to my Mac. So now I’m finally maximizing the potential of my home studio. And I love it! All the best.
More like playing creatively

Absolutely stunning & amazing. Love the music, Mary in Boone, NC
Glad you enjoyed it
Csodálatos!
Maravilhoso !
Muito obrigado :-)
the dance of the starlings is beautiful we know, in fact I could see it in front of my house a few months ago in Lima Peru (I mean, it is not a free field like in the video) but there is a park in front of my house, I guess it was thanks to the quarantine that they came. It was the first time I saw something like that in person so I looked it up on the internet and found this, but what really ended up making this video so great was the music, shazam didn't give me any results and that's when I read that you made this? great job, It's beautiful, not cheesy at all, but if it is it's in a good way. Many people would like to compose something like this, although I think this should have more views, I also think that sometimes it doesn't feel so bad because it is not necessary to have a hit if finally the music gives you peace and ends up pleasing you in a sense that those vanities don't matter.
Thank you very much for your kind words Karen. What fascinates me here is that the murmuration and the music synchronise so well because of the capacity of the brain to naturally synchronize its brainwave frequencies with the rhythm of periodic external stimuli, most commonly auditory, visual, or tactile.
Absolutely stunning
Thank you Linda 😊😊😊.....oh you mean the birds...oh I see🥺
SübhanAllah MaşAllah
Nice looking
Beautiful music, excellent filming. Such a good piece of work on this amazing spectacle should be used to highlight the Critically Endangered status of this species and many other species as the climate change problem of upsetting nature's delicate balance is now damaging more and more species. My emblem is all about the Starlings plight, I created it from a photo of a Starling in my garden!
Your are right Peter, more needs to be done before it is too late..
Exactly Gerrit. Been doing all I can myself since the realisation of how much trouble the planet is in first floored me over ten years ago. My car is a walking talking environmental awareness banner, check it out on the 30 second video at:-

Do not know If I can do much more, Britain people and government are still asleep at the wheel here,,,,
Can we PLEASE just enjoy this beautiful thing of nature and lovely music, without a comment about climate change??? Give it a rest for 5 minuted
This is incredibly beautiful and profound! I too would like to use this as a metaphor in a presentation to teachers who have, despite the craziness of covid-19, managed to morph education into something incredibly beautiful online. Would love to acknowledge your beautiful composition and the work of Simon Waters. Can I use the video?
Dear Andrew, sincere thanks for your kind comments and please go ahead using this video provided you refer to the work of Simon Waters.
Пусть,это не кончается...Это жизнь....🌹
I wonder they dont hit each other during the show 😁. Perfect execution that human should imitate.
and we should
They track their movement with their 6 closest neighbors while maintaining an average flight speed of 34.5km/h

❤ very amazing feeling like a God Allah painting making different pictures in their own sky by angels.Pakistan
Birds gather in murmurations for a variety of reasons. Grouping together offers safety in numbers as predators like peregrine falcons find it hard to target one bird in amongst a hypnotising flock of thousands. Starlings also gather to keep warm at night and exchange information about good feeding areas. Hence, no need for a any god or angels to explain this behaviour. We better rely on scientific insight to fully understand and enjoy the beauty of the laws of physics and nature.
What is this music name ? Please help me.
Dear Adil, this is a soundscape I composed and played for this particular video. It does not have a name but you will find more of my music on ua-cam.com/play/PLnJkgUoD8w9fAxoppSoNNGi9fgN3fRhxl.html

This is nature's representation of a lava lamp
Or is a lava lamp man,s weak effort to emulate the profound beauty of nature?
Hahaha!
Без обид. Как я командовал, так и летали. Уважаю скворцов!!!
Это не уникальное явление, поскольку некоторые виды рыб и насекомых демонстрируют одинаковое мурмурирование или стайное поведение.

birds knowing about math
Süper 😂😂❤❤

symphony name please
It's just one of my piano improvisations as a backgroud for the videoclip. If you like my music, please subscribe at ua-cam.com/channels/mt0RFfeWl5IvIxYagVSymA.html
Самое непостижимое, Синхронность полета огромной стаи.Не толпа , не чехарда а по невидимой команде все летят куда надо! Хищники не могут достать из этого теперь большого организма одну особь.Они ждут слабого ,отставшего.Эти огромные стаи скворцов раньше кружили в Италии. Сейчас что-то не видно.
Действительно, мурмурация птиц создает коллективную безопасность, увеличивает выживаемость. Это явление позволяет стае обнаруживать хищников, эффективно использовать воздушные потоки и экономить энергию.
Just love these murmurations, but why do we need music drowning out the bird noise
Hi Julian, you must be using the Royal We as many people seem to like the cohesion between the movements and the music. For the bird noise (including the wind noise and the human noise) you have to open the link to the original video which I provided above (click on “show more“).
@@GerritStassyns Most people don't comment against the music, I hate it but wasn't going to say anything, but if you look at the comments in bird noises murmuration videos, like here:
ua-cam.com/video/2vqYVGvaWQQ/v-deo.html
you will see many more thanking him for NOT ruining it with music. Still thank you, the video is awesome, I will go to the 'bird noise' one. This murmuration is just bull####, and tops it off with the way the pattern just collapsed into the ground, just amazing!! :-)
Messmerising.
Вот чудо Аллаха!
鳥雲飛舞變換
很高兴你喜欢它
we could make a rilgion out of this
I think this is a demonstration of strength with the aim of threatening birds of prey, in order to protect their flock in this area. If you look closely, you will see a predator and how collectively they are afraid against it. I wrote about this more than once. And let scientists not bother with this.
Думаю это демонстрация силы с целью угрозы против хищных птиц, в целях безопасности своей стаи в этой местности. Об этом не раз писал.
Ты абсолютно прав :-)
Wouldn't it be simply awful if this turned out to be computer generated?
Or amazing
Except it’s very much not. Sometimes reality is more amazing than fiction.
