Love all of your starling murmurations, including this one. I remember a previous murmuration in the shape of an airplane. Here I see a duck. Top-notch work!

Thanks for all the kind comments.
I am very fortunate to have the starlings perform each evening not far from my home, a different show each time. They attract the attention of a peregrine falcon most evenings and the chase can be spectacular.
They have been in the same area for over ten years, but I have yet to see one fall from the sky.
