I just found this bird movie on the internet, very cool. I'm not sure if I like the music.

They remind me of Smokey from Lost.

 :wave:   Wow, what a cool video!    :clap:   Thanks Aafke. Being a pig lover I have to say I like the music because it sounds like they are saying oink,oink,oink!   :gum:

Wow, that is one of the coolest things I've seen, (and I never ever saw this live, only still pics). Great find Aafke. I love it. THANK YOU! Amazing birds!  :thumbsup:

It does remind me of "Smocke" after looking at it!   :scaredblue:

Thanks Aafke.  I have always been fascinated by the balletic movements of huge flocks of birds.  How the birds can act in concert is a mystery.  I have read some studies on the subject and have found no answers other than it is an effective way to avoid predation.  Perhaps they are just having fun!  And yes, the music is lame!
