*quality

Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by lurgee.

I've seen this a few times in life. Once it was a flock that was so much larger than this I can't even make a good estimate because I think most people would believe I was exaggerating. It covered most of the sky. Was driving on the I5 freeway in Northern California, midday, slightly overcast, farmland everywhere around. It was like the sky had a blanket that came loose in the wind. They just morphed and undulated for hours. I wasn't the only person who stopped on the side of the road to watch. It was one of the few breathtaking things I'll remember for as long as I live.

And I used to appreciate the twenty or so that come to our backyard feeder. Now I'm going to have to get out there and tell them to quit fucking slacking.

Murmuration is a cool word.

Also this is on my bucket list.

I also have seeing a murmuration on my bucket list.

Something close to this?
