Murmurations

|

The picture above shows a murmuration of starlings dodging the attack of a hawk.

Murmurations are one of the most hypnotic occurrences in nature. Unfortunately, and rather surprisingly, I could only find the following video:

There are much larger and more impressive examples elsewhere I'm sure.

Cuando una bandada de estorninos se junta al anochecer, crea uno de los espectaculos mas hipnoticos de la naturaleza:

Me consta que existen videos de bandadas de estorninos mucho mayores y mas espectaculares, pero no he conseguido localizar ninguno.
