Starling Murmuration

 

Nearly the new year and the weather was overcast & grey, I went into Wallingford and there was hardly a soul around


I took a photo of the town Christmas Tree which is lit up at night, apart from a couple of cars and person walking past Costa there was no one around.

Evening time and my wife & I noticed the starlings in murmuration

 
 This is one thing we have missed seeing for a while and this year we have seen it a few times
 

It was not a large murmuration but other starlings joined in. It's good to see them back around here again hopefully their numbers will increase.
 
Happy SkyWatch

  1. The swarm of birds flying in the grey sky; perfect representation of the season. I love the tree too with its star hanging out on top.

  4. I love watching mumerations; it amazes me how the starlings can all move as one and not crash into each other when they change direction.
