West Pier Sunset II

The starlings were starting to gather as the evening drew in. It is always a delight to watch them swoop and soar over the pier. This is a relatively small murmuration for Brighton.

Such an interesting pier and the sky with starlings in fantastic.

I've only seen a murmuration once, how very special:)

@fbailey We are very lucky in Brighton. At dusk, the starlings often put on an impressive aerial display. Always a pleasure to watch.
The West pier is usually a good observation point.
