I was in a busy airport car park once and an enormous Murmuration like this was happening about 200 yards away. Someone yelled "Look at that" and the entire car park just stopped in silence as everyone noticed it, cars stopped, everybody just stopped. Feeling the collective wonder pass through this crowd of hot and bothered, stressed out people getting off flights made me appreciate the power that nature has to inspire wonder in us, regardless of any modern day context that removes us from it.
This was beautiful. Our roots are planted within nature. We come from the sea and sky and unfortunately we have lost touch with nature. It's amazing that you got to exporence true wonder and mass fascination.

Spectacular video, especially the ending. The murmurations are breathtaking while the birds are in flight. Another aspect that's remarkable is when the group decides to land. I watched a murmuration a few winters ago. I could only guess how many birds were involved - thousands, no doubt, but how many thousands I really couldn't say. When they landed on a field they literally turned the field black. There seemed to be not a spare inch of space.
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever witnessed. A few years ago I worked at at this place out by some fields. Sometimes where I would park for lunch a much smaller flock of these birds would come and dance in the sky like this while I was eating. It was probably about a hundred to two hundred birds. It was a magnificent sight. 🤩 Then one day, a month or so after I stopped working there I was sitting in my chair and I heard quite a racket outside. I was like, what the heck is that?! So I went outside and there were 100 to 200 starlings in all the trees surrounding my building, just a chattering away... It was LOUD. Very very LOUD. 😳 😂 Flitting from one tree to another. This lasted about 15 minutes or so, and then one of them took off to the south, and the rest followed. Which also was an amazing sight. 🤩 They have visited more than a few times. I haven't seen them since early spring this year. It seems they stop in to say hello in the spring and fall. So hope to see them again this year. But things change, so there is just no telling. 🤷♀️
I was lying in my bedroom and a large wind sound woke me up and I was like wow it's some strong winds outside today ..then I was like that's unusually strong..and when I look out the window I saw the school of birds swarming together and designs and shapes in flocking around my house in my backyard it had to been 5,000 birds and just a chirping in the wind from their feathers together it was beautiful I watched them until they were gone
Starlings are amazing and their "Murmurations" is still a mystery on why they do it. Their recreations reveal that starlings maintain their fluid formations via a mechanism known as scale-free behavioral correlation, in which each bird positions itself next to approximately seven other birds, coordinating its movements to create an overlapping synchronicity. Although each bird is interacting with its nearby neighbors, every bird’s movements affects and are affected by the entire group, allowing information to travel across the flock at a constant speed. The result is collective decision-making so agile that a signal to turn, usually initiated by a bird on the outskirts, can flash through a flock of 400 birds in half a second-a speed of 90 miles per hour.
I’ve seen loads of murmuration videos before, but this is the first (and only) one I’ve seen with the addition of the natural sound they make….. absolutely incredible! Thank you for keeping it stunningly simple.

This happens in Denmark (SW Jutland) every year as well, the starlings gather in the hundreds of thousands or even millions in the Wadden Sea area before starting their migrations north/south (They do it both in the spring and fall). While they're here eating for a while they'll do those "dances" that we call "sort sol" (Black sun) which attracts a lot of people since it's so cool/strange. :)
I was once walking along the Tiber River in Rome when a murmuration began overhead while a street musician happened to be playing "Fields of Gold" nearby. Needless to say just about everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up. One of those perfect moments of serendipity and harmony. It was the most relaxing experience I have ever had.
Yep, we are alot like starlings. Aggressive and destroying other species. Have you ever wondered why there are so many starlings in flocks at a time when so many birds are on a downward trend?

Just mind blowing! If one wing tip touched another, half the flock would be down? I read somewhere its a "law of seven"? Each bird watches only those immediately around it... Nature is miraculous. Thank you for posting.
Wonderful! I have seen only relatively small murmurations in person, though I have seen some lovely videos. Most of the latter have either been filmed from a distance or been overlaid with dramatic orchestral music. While that might have enhanced the beauty in a way, I find I much prefer the thunder of wings and chatter of the birds! Awesome in the best meaning of the word!😮🥰
It's choreography that has been rehearsed many times. In Mobile, Alabama area off I-10 to New Orleans I saw a great many flocks in the millions but I was most impressed in Dec 1982 when I saw the record number estimating 9M. What was also interesting was that every bird moved in nearly a straight line flying for 3.5 hrs covering aleast 100 miles and every bird was spaced one behind the other and the same spacing across about a football field width. Not one out of place. I naturally called it in to national geographic as the flew froGA. Copper cable plant in Watkinsville, GA towards Athens, Ga.
I saw a swarm of starlings years ago from my window. It was early morning, the sun had been up for about and hour. Considering I lived in Bronx, New York it was very strange.

That's what I was thinking. Just to see who moves first and his they react with each other. I'm sure someone has done it. I heard that how they don't bump into each other is because they perceive time differently to us because of their rapid heartbeat. This is just like walking in a crowd to them. I think it's a good theory .
Starlings are amazing and intelligent birds that often mimic other birds, I've seen youtube videos of them taking. Wish they would get the respect they deserve.
Saw Starlings fly like this at dusk at Lipson Cove Conservation Park on the east cost of the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. Took several videos - not as clear as this one but bloody awesome to see this occurrence on two seperate nights. When they arrived one night there was no wind and the flocks didn’t join up and just flew straight to the island where they landed for the night.
BEAUTIFUL sky painting... I saw birds do this once, in Eugene, OR, some years back. Thought they were rehearsing for a flight south. Now I don't see such huge flocks, haven't for quite a while...
Wow! So beautiful...and the roaring sound of all those thousands of wings flying up above!! To be where that photographer stood to take that stunning video...blessed! 😍💖🕊
Absolutely amazing flight of these huge numbers of birds, capable of changing formations like a computer programmed drill. This is incredible show of nature at it's best. 👌👌👍👍
It's totally amazing how a murmuration of starlings often appears to be one large starling, moving and flying through the air. Has anyone else noticed this?
Omg, I’ve been hearing them around my workplace. I live in Mentor, Ohio, an eastern suburb of Cleveland. I’ve lived here most of my life and have never heard crows like what I have heard within the last 3 weeks. The weather has been -16 to 68 and I wonder if the weather is confusing them. We are a big suburb having the Metroparks, suburban life and the in between.

I live in a National forest and once when the trees around me were so full of Starling that when I fired a shot off all the birds took flight, I could actually feel the wind from their wings when they took flight. It was awesome.
My girlfriend and I went for a trip to Gettysburg PA. On the drive there, we stopped at a Dairy Queen. While at the Dairy Queen, we looked up in the sky and saw starlings flying like in the video. It was a strange, but fascinating sight to see. We watched for about 20 minutes before continuing on our journey.
Absolutely stunning. My son watches the starlings when we are out and see them. He made his own video on this channel if anyone wants too see AlfieExperience.
They do this whenever a predator is attacking to confuse them and evade their attacks, it's so cool how much effort every starling puts in just to save one!
