After work one day last week I went for a walk through an area open space. There wasn’t much excitement to photograph but there was this crazy scene – what must have been thousands of red-winged blackbirds. Called a “murmuration”, these huge gatherings of blackbirds are guessed to be done as predator avoidance. It was cool to see and hear although I suppose if Hitchcock’s “The Birds” gave you nightmares, you might not have cared for it. 🙂
