I remember watching the starlings on Summer evenings when I was a child ,in Devon, UK. Massive flocks of them, every evening. Then they seemed to dwindle and it became a rare sight. I've noticed, over the last few years , when visiting home , that smaller flocks seem to be coming back and this wonderful sight is happening again. We took the display for granted, but ,when I saw them again as an elderly woman, one evening driving outside Exeter, Devon, I had to pull over and watch their amazing display.

You see from a human viewpoint. See it from the birds'. They too come back at night to sleep on the trees, and get thrown out. Meanwhile humans continue to enjoy in their air-conditioned homes.

We used to see huge flocks of starlings and black birds fly over our house when I was a child in the 1950's. It would go on for about 45 minutes non-stop. I would sit out there with a coke and some cookies and watch it before going into the house to do my home work.
I knew this was Rome from the thumbnail, this is truly amazing and it happens every summer. I have seen it many times and it is truly a sight to behold.
I saw it in Rome in December 2004 and I was awestruck. I had never even heard of such a thing before. I live in Florida, have traveled to dozens of countries and have not see this again but would love to.
Bio- acoustics work well if used right. Them using it amplified x100 is pointless as it will become a meaningless noise that the birds couldn't produce. Kept at the correct volume that the birds themselves use they will recognise it as THEIR alarm call. I suppose so called experts thought these control measures. I controlled birds using trained Hawks for years, limited success after a while but very lucrative if you have the Hawks!
I forgot that David Tenant did nature narration. It's good to know that some animals still exist in thier millions. We haven't wiped out everything yet.
We did a pretty good job of wiping out Starlings in Britain. There are a few flocks around, but nothing like the numbers we had 35 years ago. I remember seeing them use the main highway out of London through Essex in the evenings. The sound was tremendous and they made spectacular viewing.
I was sad when I heard that the passenger pigeons went extinct because I thought they were the only birds which had such awesome flocks but now I'm incredibly happy ever since I've heard about starlings.
I’ve been a victim of this swarm in Rome...was like why is everybody have umbrellas it’s sunny day out... then it happened cloud of poop rain, lol was a great vacation!
We used to get "Purple Rain" in my neighbourhood. I should have written that song in the 1970's. The area in Toronto where I grew up was populated by many Italians and in the home wine making season they bought thousands of crates of whole grapes, "Uva por vino" signs everywhere, then they put what was left of the grapes out for garbage. Of course the birds gobble it up and then s#it purple poo on the area for a while.
I had the good fortune of experiencing a flock of migrating starlings making a stop in the spruce right outside my kitchen window on the third floor in Norway. I got to watch them from only a few meters away. Pretty birds and funny too. Hard to say how many they were, but I'd say between 1 and 2 hundred maybe. They are constantly chatting with each other, so when there's that many in one tree, it becomes quite the spectacle. The magpie pair that normally considers this tree their space, were positively flabbergasted and quickly realized the futility in chasing them when there were so many, so they just flew off. After a 10-15 minutes rest, they moved on. It was dusk, and I don't know if they migrate at night. Some birds do, some don't. But whatever the case they didn't spend the night right outside my apartment, which was maybe a blessing. If they keep that chatter up all night, I'd say it was. Who knows, maybe they were headed to Rome.
Such a sad scenario - it's the birds world too !!! It's like waking you up at night and throwing you out of your house because you poop in your own house
They wouldn't gather there if it wasn't for the humans creating the heat that they enjoy so much. Therefore humans were there first so in reality the birds are the guests and they are literally shitting everywhere.
@@shineyu1097 The video says that they only swarm over the city because the city has warmth. Meaning they wouldn't be there if the humans weren't there. Meaning the humans were there first, and the starlings only showed up to get warm off of all the heat a city produces.
In 1970 I went fishing in Lockerbie, Scotland and as we anchored the boat we witnessed a scene just like this above the lake in front of us. Then after a while they came over us to roost in a massive reed bed behind us and the crap fell on us like heavy rain. I have seen flocks of starlings since but nothing remotely in the numbers i saw that night.
About 40 years I ago I lived in Manchester, England... In the centre of the city was a big square, Piccaddilly Gardens. At dusk in the winter there would be huge swarms of Starlings swirling overhead, so many that the noise of the birds was heard above all the city traffic. They settled for the night on all the trees in the Gardens and the volume of poo and urine was unbelievable - you could see it flowing under the trees and the phone boxes in the square looked like candles, with all the poo looking like candle wax. I heard that the birds killed off all the vegetation in the square. In the 90s they rebuilt the whole square. I don't think starlings gather like that any more?
I fed about a hundred down the coast yesterday, they were preparing for their winter migration to Africa, they were landing on my door mirror and eating out my hand, the looked like tiny dinosaurs and reminded my of my young Jack Russell dogs the way they wait in turn and await their treats

They need to build a starling grove that is more attractive for them. Our starlings sleep in the park. The fertilizer is useful there.
And the vocal abilities of starlings are equally fabulous.
The birds...the poo...the screaming bird sound...the thunder & lightning...it's like some strange otherworldly horror flick.

"10million strong starling swarm Isn't real. It can't hurt you."
10million strong starling swarm:
Boss Bird; Quick pass the word around, we're 'all' going sleep in that tree tonight.
Other birds; Which tree?
Boss Bird; The one with the Maserati parked under it.
Other birds; OK! It's unanimous. Pass the prunes around fellas
My Dad called. He wants his sense of humor back.
The lightening is perfect cinematic timing while the amplified alarm sound is being played by the workers. Very ominous. 4:50
Mixed blessings . Beauty and (is) the beast . Give me starlings 'over' cities any day*
Truly one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life! I'm 54 and I have seen many many many amazing things around the world!.. Wow that's freaking great thank you
