Another reason I always say, Mother Nature is my favorite artist.

No such thing as Mother Nature. I think you mean God.

There's a billion times more supporting evidence to support the existence of Mother Nature-than a silly god.

Once I watched such starling formations in the sky over Rome from the top of St. Peter's cathedral on a beautiful summer evening. Unforgettable.

Beauty of organisms working towards a common goal/interest, the opposite of chaos. A calming sight indeed such spectacle.

“...the opposite of chaos.” Beautifully observed.

I am so lucky to live in an apartment that overlooks a forest and the yearly murmuration. Usually from mid-October to early November, they provide a spectacle that has everyone on their balconies. Never gets old.

I live in Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA, and one day I saw this amazing display in the sky. Not anything like you witness, but I was captivated. So every Winter I look for a murmuration and am entralled by this miracle. The European starlings were smuggled into the US in the 1800’s, I believe, so they were or still are considered a predator to our avian balance here. But they bring me much joy. Thank you for your beautiful photography of this mystery in the sky

The message emanating from these bird murmurations is the United we stand and divided we fall to predators of all sorts .

I can only hope to be swept away by this breathtaking phenomenon. I've seen it happen in smaller formations when I least expected it. What a gift this project is. I didn't think anyone else was looking up.

Murmurations are amazing. Birds, fish, even insects.

The more you travel, the more you see that there are so many wonderful things in the world. It can be difficult to settle for something great when you can see that there could always be something better just round the next corner. Travel can sometimes simply be about a quest for perfection. This quest for perfection that we are looking for,we found just now in your video so the only that we have to say on you: Huge thank you and keep going!!!!!!!!!

I was riding my bike as a teenager in jr.high school and I was riding along an old cyclone fence line whistling as I went when suddenly I was attacked by a huge group of Starlings and blackbirds and sparrows! I wiped out but eventually got Away...it was quite scary 😨

The Starling Murmuration was a rain making technique they induced the static electricity to charged the particles in the atmosphere the charged particles can form the water droplets the swarm of locust and honeybee also induced static electricity too they need the waters so the plants can grow they can get the foods out of its.Sometimes the Starling Murmurations can cause their lives, because the charged particles can became the lighting and killed them as you can see the massive number of Starlings were falling down from the sky in some video on KZbin the sound of lightning strike and the birds were falling down on the street and some of them survived the lighting that they made

Thank you Soren for your great contribution! wonder if the earth's magnetic field, Tsunamis, quakes have an impact?

When playing golf in the evening back in the late 80s, I would take time to watch this natural pleasure one evening; they created the shape of the mushroom cloud several times. This was the topic of conversation for a while when playing. Within a month, they were all gone, as far as I know to this day. The weak force in close proximity? Reply

Imagine thousands of illuminated drones programmed to mimic incredibly complex swarm behavior. Illuminated dancing fountains are so last century.

February 24 | Bible in a Year: Numbers 9-11; Mark 5:1-20 Better Together Two are better than one . . . . If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 READ Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 Søren Solkær spent years photographing starlings and their breathtaking spectacle: murmurations, where hundreds of thousands of starlings move in fluid motion across the sky. Watching this marvel is like sitting underneath an orchestrated, swirling wave or a massive, dark brushstroke flowing into a kaleidoscope of patterns. In Denmark, they call this starling experience Black Sun (also the title of Solkær’s stunning book of photographs). Most remarkable is how starlings instinctively follow their nearest companion, flying so close that if one were to miss a beat, they’d suffer mass calamity. However, starlings use murmurations to protect one another. When a hawk descends, these tiny creatures enter tight formation and move collectively, beating back a predator who’d easily pick them off if they were alone. We’re better together than we are alone. “Two are better than one,” Ecclesiastes says. “If either . . . falls down, one can help the other up. [And] if two lie down together, they will keep warm” (4:9-11). Alone, we’re isolated and easy prey. We’re exposed without the comfort or protection of others. But with companions, we give and receive help. “Though one may be overpowered,” Ecclesiastes says, “two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken” (v. 12). We’re better together as God leads us. By Winn Collier. Wow!
