My favourite collective noun - a MURMURATION of Starlings. You are so lucky to have seen this as these lovely birds have been persecuted so that this is a rare sight. We are so lucky that you captured it so brilliantly. Thank you for sharing this stunning piece.
This is a sight to be behold. I have only seen it once at Brighton. well captured

This is amazing, the best shot of the subject that I've seen (and you've uploaded some good 'uns). It captures that sense of a common spirit, a collective mind, psychology that we poor limited humans can never understand.

Almost like some great bird in the sky, magical image Ron.
