I've always enjoyed watching flocks of starlings and wondered how so many can move as one large entity. Great video of them flying.

They are amazing. Thanks for the link.

Yep. Pretty amazing. Thanks for this.

I've seen similar behaviour in really big flocks of dunlin and western sandpipers off the shore of SW British Columbia. Always wonder how they manage not to impale one another. Precision flying and long beaks seem kinda tricky.

I saw this one a few weeks ago and it blew me away.
