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.

It's a bird tsunami

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. 🤷‍♀️

Absolutely stunning...the only such film to capture the eerie beauty of the sound of the birds without adding a mindless soundtrack.

It's like a super organism that expresses its full life force in a spectacular dance. Utterly fascinating.

It sounds like waves crashing in the sand. Very relaxing and magical. It must be an amazing feeling to be witness of that.

Yes indeed

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.

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 didn't realise there was a sound they made. They sound like the ocean.

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.

That was cool AF!

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 .

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!😮🥰

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.

I must be one of the lucky ones. My apartment overlooks woodland and fields. Between October and November I can sit on my balcony and watch a different show every evening.

The sounds they make are amazing!

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.

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?

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.

There's so many you can hear the roar of their wings collectively beating as they wave across the sky!
