The right place at the right time!

2 young ladies in the UK happened to be at the right place at the right time to catch this phenomenon called of a murmuration of Starlings.

Holy moly! that's incredible, I think if I was in the canoe I would have had a heart attack, that's a lot of birds!

Cool.    I saw this video on The Weather Network.

We too were at the right place at the right time on Sunday.  Along Niagara Stone Road heading towards Niagara-on-the-lake we watched as a huge murmuration of Starlings danced over the farm fields to our left.  What an amazing thing to watch!

Here's a video of the Starlings that are putting on a show for everyone downtown at Yonge & Dundas in Toronto.

While in downtown Toronto around Dundas Square this afternoon I looked up just in time to see a flock of roughly 100 Starlings doing their acrobatics in the sky.  Not sure if the group will grow in size again like it did last year, time will tell.  Check them out if you're downtown in that area, it's a nice break from the hectic rush of Christmas shopping.
