I had never seen anything like this in all my 52 years. The wonder of it is enough to bring me to tears!!!!!!!!!!!
That's lovely. Emotions are fantastic!
Tears? You need to get out of the sauce lady.
Me too. I tear up 😢 it’s so beautiful 😍.. they were just in my back yard! Hundreds of them!
Bro I just saw it out my house
Yes, joyful tears my wifie and I wrote a book about called, GodBumps.
And all my worries disappeared for 4 minutes.
I tried to clean your fly from your Icon.
My god that Icon made me try to smash the screen
me too
this weekend a girl, friend with my wife came to our town ...
saturday afternoon and all sunday, we visited ~20 churches and monasteries from and around town ...
when we reached the church near Opera painted by Arsenie Boca, the mileage indicated 300 II I km (so just passed the 29th) ...
also, 11 yesrs ago yesterday, Patriarch Daniel was named the head of Romanian Orthodox Church ...
@ ~ 5 pm we also reached another church painted by Arsenie Boca, at Draganescu ... for sanctification of the Church ...
thousandas of people there, wife's friend had to reach the airport so we chose to leave ...
when driving back, between Draganescu and Mihailesti, out of nowhere, a flock of small birds, I don't know what birds (not crows / sparrows / pigeons) came from a tree from the left and blocked the road ... took us some 2 minutes to pass ...
after airport, me and wife chose to return to Draganescu church ...
dude - watch it for 8 minutes!
Sometimes we forget what a wonderful world we live in :)
zoopi94 Definitely we‘re forgetting it to often.

I was smiling all through this video. My problems became totally inconsequential at the sight of this wonder as I marvel at this beautiful gift, wrapped in Canon in D major
I have seen folds turn within tunnels, I have touched the silken sky as countless artists weave grace before my very eyes. Harmony of winds as if each breath of tiny life is reaching out to me. Wings of divine dunes dance in myriads of haze and I see wonders that hold me speechless. Each one spins a web as if controlled by natures built-in chip. I see grace and I know that I am nothing in comparison, we are nothing because we dance alone, not so the Starling... unity is life and so wonderful.
Very nice. Keep going.
i usually hate the so-called music people add to videos, but this is just wonderful, done with great timing like choreography - and actually enhances the dance of the birds. . . thank you so much - just incredible!
Canon in D by Johann Pachelbel
IF it had been taken where you could see them from afar it is so much more rewarding ...this is wonderful truly also though.

I could not agree more.
just listen to it
THIS IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE CLIP OF SWARM OF STARLINGS THAT TAKES MY BREATH AWAY & THE MUSIC FITS IT BEAUTIFULLY I LOVE ❤️ IT.
It's been three years since I first saw this and I keep coming back to it. The most beautiful film I've ever seen.
i think im still coming here because of the incredible trumpet version of the canon. but the video is what mesmerized me first, i admit
I remember the day when I was in France, and these birds were flying together just like in the video - as though they were a single entity navigating through the air, making visible their collective thoughts and putting colour to the air currents. It was a normal sight during the season but also surreal if you could spare a moment to lose yourself in the rolling waves of motion.
@@ciupenhauer the music complements the action and enhances it. shudder to think what one of those jingle-jangle backing tracks would have done to it!
I'd never heard the trumpet variation before, now that's on my list to look for
@@penguin0101 I saw this in Brooklyn NY.At first I wondered how come a distant cloud was solid black.Then I couldn't understand how a cloud could move that way.I realized it was perhaps somewhere between 1 and 200,000 starlings flying in the distance!It was amazing.So far it remains a once in a lifetime experience.I would love to see it again and not just in a video.For now,the videos give me hope and they are all so different.Nature is magnificent!
@@leilanikuuipo6004 - "this video proves further doubt of god"??? probably not what you MEANT, but yes, I agree with what you SAID! Nature is enough in and of itself.
Sir, your words are as beautiful as the dance of the birds. I am reading this on my birthday and it's one of the best gifts ever... and from a stranger! Thank you!
I have been fortunate enough to see this phenomena many times and everytime I've seen it, I'm rendered speechless. It's dazzling and inexplicable.
It's a gift from God out of His love. to bring us joy, to look at and marvel.. His amazing Creation. There's no other explanation. They look like they're enjoying it too!
Beautiful. No leaders in the world, just the grace of All being One.
Nature is our finest teacher.
did you mean the one creating this in video software?
@Wheel No.4 actually i happen to have read that Jesus trough several modern day propphets talks about a earth in the shape of a globe.
as for "what causes coronavirus" He is also found saying its man made but there will soon come worse viruses.
@@jesuschristislordoflordsan427 I've seen starlings doing this with my own eyes. The beauty of evolution!
In all my years, I've never laid eyes on something as beautiful as this when looking through mother nature's creations.
Stunning! And not a single bird bumps into another. This just shows us what group cooperation and One-mindedness can do. It doesn't look like they're trying to "get anywhere".... just have fun! If people could work together like that, we really would create a new Heaven on Earth.
Beth Kuper , incredible thought. wonderful thinkings about peoples community. Thanks a lot.
It moves randomly like that because they're trying to find another bird to follow. But, since noone bird is the leader they a move oddly following eachother
@@burdy2959 - it's a living, breathing 3d kaleidoscope, never the same pattern twice
@Siniestro Triggered. you're the idiot if you can watch that an can't see any creation or design
Have you ever listened to 'Imagine'? Do you think John Lennon was an idiot too? You probably do. But let me tell you that it's cynics like you who keep things as they are. Does that make you happy? Probably not. The hallmark of a cynic is that nothing can make him/her happy. I feel sorry for you and I hope you will one day see what you are doing to yourself and others, and change your ways. It's not that hard to do, trust me.
This is the most incredibly beautiful thing that I have ever seen. I can watch it over and over, and it still takes my breath away, literally, every time. Thank you so much for posting this.
LOL the bigger bird at the right of the screen at 0:53 is flying away like "... o.o I have made a mistake...."
+Jonathan Mitchell I KNOW RIGHT I SAW THAT TOO lmao
+Jonathan Mitchell There's a Dungeons & Dragons joke about designing encounters in here somewhere...
+Jonathan Mitchell Pretty sure that's a hawk; wonder if he's going after the starlings.
He should; starlings can mob and kill bigger birds.
+jonathan mitchell... lmao
Synchronised flying. It's majestic. Perfect musical accompaniment.

So mesmerizing - I'm all slack-jawed with awe - -- - such abstract beauty - - adored the choice of music!!
+elaine patrick Pachelbel; yes, perfect.
Somehow the combination of the birds and Pachelbel makes me feel like I suddenly understand the meaning of life.
Wow Dylan thank you so much for sharing this video. It has to be the most amazingly stunning example of Mother Nature I have ever seen in my 69 years. Congratulations and cheers from Western Australia...keep them coming please Dylan..bit sad you only have mostly only dogs on your channel I was looking forward to seeing more amazing videos
I just learned about murmuration today in 2019. I graduated high school in 1995. The public school system failed me immensely.
You cannoit be the same person after you carefully watch this a few times! I saw it about ten years ago.....

Surely your comment is a bit unfair. You are able to write perfectly and express your thoughts clearly, which is no small accomplishment, seriously. They can't teach EVERYTHING, that would be impossible. You were taught how to think critically, and apparently very well, so you're perfectly equipped to discover about what interests you.
@@slowpainful yea i was just kidding. You're absolutely right and thank you
Just as the piece is ending the birds leave the arena.. very well edited!
Fun fact: this clever bird is known as a "starling" because the species will actually turn into a star (called a "lingstar") if you have enough of them in the same place.
You will need roughly two hundred undecillion starlings to make your own lingstar. Since the Migratory Bird Treaty Act makes this process more difficult, the safest approach would be to establish an avian breeding program for starlings at your local metro park.
Good luck, aspiring stellavianists!
I feel like you just made that up.
Miss T. Wolf,
Are you in any way related to Florence Ambrose? Just curious.
Also, there are not enough Starlings in the human universal view of time/space/matter for an Undecillion, let alone 200 Undecillions. (I'm talking Starlings here, not anything else).
However, if there were then it would simply be a case of mass collapsing through combined gravity and density (or do I mean Dentistry?).
Probably.
I'm no expert on the gravity caused by two hundred undecillion avianonic creatures, but that kind of mass of Starlings would...well...produce a rather...erm...interesting...um..mess, I suspect. I doubt the Starlings would find it much fun!
Gavin Callard Look we all came from xkcd go check it out what-if.xkcd.com/
sladjkf Where did you think I get here from? ;)
Michael King I actually calculated the 200 undecillion figure. I don't think the crowd here would expect anything less.
Thank you for producing and sharing this video, Dylan! Beautiful, mysterious, soothing--I needed this today.
This beautiful and absolutely amazing performance these Starlings gave us is one of the most breathtaking things I have ever seen. I found a piece of music that I loved some time ago and this video was the first thing I thought of. The music fit perfectly. I looked long and hard and tried to find some decent video in the Public Domain to edit, but had no luck. This morning I was working out in my backyard and heard all this chirping and the next thing I know, hundreds of birds took flight from the trees. There must have been at least a thousand of them, right in front of me. I was about in tears because here was my chance to capture this beauty, but I know my camera doesn't have the quality to have created the brilliant images created in this video. I could never have done justice to what I was witnessing, so I refused to even try. I'm far from a professional photographer, but I know beauty when I see it and this video gives us seamless, flowing grace which brings tears to my eyes. It may sound corny, but it's the truth.
Well...yeah, it sounds corny I suppose. But we're corny people. I suppose. I wonder how many of them would constitute a good meal and how many of them my 12 Gauge would bring down loaded with skeet rounds. Also, I doubt if they were starlings at all. More likely they were "Grackles", which is a bird and not a snack food. I know I'm right because wise guy is always right, even when he's wrong he's right. Nice to hear from you. How did you manage to get unblocked? The mystery of it all...what is that out there? Now you just hush girl; 'fore I get a whuppin'.
My world...after spending the entire day laboring to give my Chevy a perfect compounding and waxing, I step back to rest my aching arms and admire the awesome sheen of my clean machine. Suddenly, from what seems to be nowhere, thousands or hundreds (make up your mind dear) of flying poop generators swoop down and carpet bomb my beauty. (Sob)
These are definitely Starlings as this was filmed in the UK. We don't have Grackles as they are mainly resident in the Americas. Unless, of course, they were over here on holiday :).

I hear you .. these beautiful creatures have a such an alluring, yet calming impact on us as humans that should be celebrated and appreciated .. also the way they work together , could teach us a thing or too about ourselves
Why would someone dislike this incredible sight?
the music i guess...
they can't achieve zen-like unity
Yes PING
Cellists do not like Pachebel's canon.
They have to play the same 8 notes over and over for about 4 minutes. They're nice notes, but they still drive you mad.
Daniel Adeyoju That's when you are better going solo!
Wonderful edit: images and music really go together.
This is awe-inspiring and beautiful beyond words. Great, great work, Dylan Winter!
I have watched this video many times. I just want to take a moment to thank
you for filming this, and sharing it on the internet, so that I can be
amazed by it over and over and over...
Cynthia
This is so beautiful, like schools of fish, or colliding galaxies... I'm glad there are some things that elude the exact, the empirical, the quantifiable, the demonstrable. I'm comfortable just allowing this to remain a mystery.
Exactly how I feel .To watch this is to have a glimpse of real freedom and joy .They are amazing ...
❤👍
It's not a mystery tho, they only do this because there's a Hawk amongst them
Or a swarm of locusts

This is beyond words. I've always been amazed by the incomprehensible reality of nature. I'm an avid student of life :)
This was so beautiful. I have seen a smaller group of starlings in murmuration from my yard, but the volume of birds here was fantastic. So relaxing watching them & the music was excellent too. Thank you for this video.😊❤
Your choice of music fit the astounding beauty of the Starlings perfectly. My eyes blurred with tears to watch such stunning poetry in motion while listening to the uplifting and inspiring music. Thank you for sharing with us God's indescribably beautiful creation! It boggles my mind trying to comprehend how so many birds in motion and close by each other, manage to never collide with one another!! If this were humans, we'd simply be one big explosion! Kah-Boom! ☺️
I must say this is one of the most amazing and most beautiful sights i have ever seen in my entire life. I've watched it over and over and over. And hmmmmm, think I'll watch it again...lol
I love this, it reminds me of my youth as the day drew in and everyone was ready to go home.
I've seen this video many, many, many times, and it never fails to amaze me.! Thank you so much to the person good enough to film this, and make it available for me to watch!
Mother Nature never disappoints us! Simply mesmerising. Thank you.
This was beautiful... great choice of music...
I'll second that
@@vicachcoup What was it? Vivaldi?
@@TheStuartOrr Pachelbel's Canon
sometimes i love to include something beautiful in my life but other times like this one, i feel compelled to give myself to her.
This is, quite frankly, the most powerful visual analogy for social movements I've ever found. Just stunning.
+AgtDaleChomsky Yes, and to so many things. Life itself!
Collective intelligence of the bird-brained masses. Yep, that'll work.
An amazing video, and one I shall never forget. Thanks Pauline
So beautiful... amazing...fantastic. That is nature.

I absolutely love watching this, thank-you for posting it. I watch it regularly and it makes me relax and feel joyful. Just beautiful.
that is so beautiful, it's so touching watching the birds connect together. And the music in the background makes it even more special.

Think of all the joy they're feeling as they fly together. What a miraculous world!
This is wonderful! Thank you, Dylan for sharing.
anyone else here because of xkcd?
Haha yep me too!!
yep :-)
Yep :P
affirmative :)
Yup. Did y'all see how many views the last video that was linked got?
Music by human
Visual performance by birds
👏👏👏👽
Wow!!! So awe inspiring! I can watch and re-watch this over and over again! Great job!
Most beautiful video ever. I want this played at my funeral, the video with the music. Stunning, just stunning xx
and humans think they are the most special beings on earth...
Sara Soper yeah but we are not we are worthless
Well, in all fairness "special" is a pretty broad term
We are the most special being on earth if we really follow God rules.
How very wrong they are!
We are. Without our presence who would witness this and talk about it!
birds are the fish of the sky.
That was absolutely amazing!! I've never seen them in this type of vision.. it was a perfect dance with the music. Well done!!
thank you for so masterfully combining all this beauty into one video ✨👌
I appreciate this video, amazing
Viendo esto, quién puede dudar de la existencia de un Poder, un maravilloso Director que hace posible tanta belleza?
Magnifique, ce déploiement dans le lever du jour, ce gonflement, cette gigantesque respiration spatiale ; tout ce mouvement est magistral.
Totally awesome! Both the birds and the music!
I only have one word for this - WOW!
That's 8.
simple beautiful and divine!
Wonderful to witness such a beautiful thing of nature. I had never seen in all of my 84 years. Thank you. ❤
This is at on my bucket list! Wow...SO mesmerizing!
Right around 2:20 it looks like a whale. Absolutely amazing.
o Allah ..stunning .. we human can never understand. it is what it is ... who ever made the video he is lucky to watch it live 😂😂😂
allah is the devil, its the devil in disguise. the father of all lies and its the cursed serpent. disguisting as hell and very mad!
Wow this is so beautiful!!! Thank you for the beautiful reminder!
Absolutely gorgeous. This always makes me smile no matter what mood I’m in.
Beautiful!
I saw another video on Facebook, and I came here to see if there were others. I have to this is absolutely beautiful. Tears in my eyes while watching it. How could anyone deny the existence of God after seeing something so perfect and beautiful as this?
True beauty can exist in nature without the influence of your made up fairy Godmother
Quite easily actually.
Me too... with all respect.
I feel the same awe but do not believe in an all powerful God.
Although I do spell His name with a capital letter.
Not totally stupid😶😶😶
Beautiful video.I loved it!.I also love that song.👍🏼❤
Nature and the wild never ceases to amaze me and overwhelm me. I seen this for the first time ever the other day whilst out walking my dogs, now I watch out for it as it truly is beautiful ❤️
The comments from some people about this video are pathetic. This video is beautiful and with the music added, it becomes majestic. It is an orchestration of angelic beauty from nature. Wake Up ! Get Real !
Spectacular! It's almost like watching waves on the ocean. Simply a gift from God. WOW
I'm so happy to hear somebody else say this is a gift from God. This is the type of thing that gives me continued faith that there is a God. I'd like to see people accomplish this with jet planes!
I watched this then fell straight asleep with the lights on, it was that mesmerizing and calming with the music. Thanks, it helps me feel more calm with all these struggles going on in 2020

Such entrancing sheer joy and exuberance of life beautifully enhanced by the music.
Pachelbel Canon in D Major is one of the most soulful and heartfelt musical pieces ever composed and performed.
Thanks for sharing.
Just imagine what a flock of passenger pigeons would have looked like!
"One flock in 1866 in southern Ontario was described as being 1 mi (1.5 km) wide and 300 mi (500 km) long, took 14 hours to pass, and held in excess of 3.5 billion birds"
Prince William Philippe
Sadly they are extinct. Really beautiful birds just google it.
Himanshu Vikal
Those birds (The Passenger Pigeons) are one of the best examples on how ignorat and devistating we humans are: They died from HUNT, not by disease or famine, but by humans hunting them; I mean: If one flock is filled with 3.5 billion birds, how good at destroying does one have to be to make something like that go extinct? I mean: the Dodo-birds were few (in comparison), fat and land-bound, so that's understandable, but the pigeons...
Perhaps they are trying to tell us how the universe began.
Eriku ism It began with Father Pucci
"So long, and thanks for all the seeds"
i think they're more in the moment than that

The beauty in the flights of birds in the imminent migration to the south, together with the magnificence of the music of Johann Pachelbel. Thank you for this combination.
Beautifully filmed. Thank you .Better than any fireworks!
i honestly want to sit and talk to the people who dislike this video
Escape for just a moment....
If you've not been lucky enough to witness a starling murmuration in person yet I highly recommend the experience :) This video is a real treat too and will tide you over until you can see one in the flesh x

In person, it's really kind of scary and loud. I saw one in california when i was younger i think. it was nowhere this big. Do other birds murmer like this?
Incredible film, Luke!
Glad this popped up in my recommendations. It's just sublime!
just made me tear up from how beautiful this is but ok 😭🥺

Me too. Beautiful, anyone knows the music?

Me too
Yes. Same chords as 'Rain and tears' by Demis Roussos!
Great video. Why people insist on setting stuff like this to music is beyond me. I'd rather just hear the birds or the wind.
Thank you. I was about to change my name to Grumpy McContrary for my similar reaction. Glad there's at least one other !
Pachelbel's Canon is perfect for this. Thank you for this gift!
I just heard a term on tv about murmuration and looked it up. I found that this forming of a murmur was the same kind of connection as a magnate and that the patterns within the force is mathematically similar to that of an avalanche. It throws off the attacks that might have come from falcons. It is amazing how many times the same mathematical probabilities and functions serve throughout Nature. Lovely.
