Reminded me of the movie, "The Birds." But not really scary because they were not dive-bombing people.

It is this time of year when (somewhere in) Scotland is famous for them. Check these out: www.theguardian.com/environment/gallery/2014/nov/06/starling-murmurations-in-pictures

Amazing JennyB.

Hezz - I have seen pictures of these fantastic displays by starlings on wild life programmes and did actually see a small murmeration in Ramsgate some months back. They are stunning to watch, the different shapes they form.
