Murmuration at Dusk

by bwlchmawr

A huge flock of starlings displaying over our gaff this evening. Even better when seen from the Somerset Levels.
Some thought they would never see a bird photograph taken by me...

Terrific sight - but this where video has the edge over still photography the wave patterns as they swoop and swirl.

I like flock starlings and their big shapes in the sky. Interesting example of "epideitico"(sorry I have no english translation for this word)behaviour

Looking at the thumbnail Andrew - I thought I was looking at the worst case of sensor dust I had ever seen

Even now - I can't help seeing it as a 'join the dots' image - certain I can make out a ram's head in there.

Nicely done sir.

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more
