Murmuration

Caught this large (well largest I’ve seen in many a year) murmuration of Starlings across the fields at Hackthorn. I know a still photograph doesn’t do it justice, but I’ve posted it anyway.

Thanks for dropping by.

Lovely photo. And yes we can get a concept of the size of this murmuration (what a lovely word that is, isn't it)

Better a still with a new vocabulary word than nothing! I've seen videos, and they're fascinating. Here you have a gorgeous photo!

I love murmurations. it never ceases to amaze me how so many birds can change direction in unison and not all collide! Love the sunset too

There is nothing more wonderful than standing watching a murmuration undulate across your viewpoint. Beautiful

Fascinating. Both the sunset and the swarm/murmuration (I learned a new word too).
