Weekly Video - Starling Flocks

Tuesdays are slow and sometimes dreary. The weekend seems like it will be forever in coming, and we could all use a little stimulation. Therefore, I declare Tuesday my official day of the week to post nature/science videos that will intrigue, interest, and sometimes humor you.

Today we have starling flocks! If you've ever seen this phenomenon, you know how improbable it seems that these birds can fly in the thousands without all crashing into each other. But there are no failed flights, there are only these beautiful and fascinating waves of birds in the sky.
