Be amazed at the flocking behavior of starlings at Ot Moor, near Oxford, England. Thousands of them swarm together on winter evenings and move in unison, creating a stunning, wave-like effect. It's absolutely beautiful.

My God. This is absolutely amazing. The sheer volume of this mass of birds--all creating such immeasurably organic orchestration--is profound. I've seen large flocks of Canadian geese where I've lived, doing their migration thing... their V's and their flocks are impressive, but this... this is a whole different level of organic complexity. I'm blown away. Though I disagree that this flocking "should be impossible" as the narrator says, I am still impressed by the beauty of it. Such behavior should be expected, but seeing it is a whole different thing. WOW.

Absolutely fantastic - anyone has an idea of the location where this actually takes place? I'd love to see it.

I believe it would be around this area, according to the video.
