    Birds...make a creature.

    This is, bar none, without a doubt, the scariest fucking thing I've ever laid eyes on in my life. Once you get done with the "Oh, that's cool" you'll quickly get into the "FLYING MENACING TERROR HOLY SHIT" moment.

    They do that at <major estuary> close to where I live. It looks absolutely stunning in real life.
    A PSA, if I may, as well as another.

      I was waiting for them to fly low enough over the road so a car could come through and splatter about 30 or 40 of 'em.

        I've said it before, I'll say it again. I've seen horror movies that started like this...*runs*
        Today was going to be just one of those days...you know, full of zombies.

                I know I wouldn't want to be under them when <ahem> "Nature Calls".

                  Being an animal lover, I find these huge flocks more mesmerizing than scary. As long as they decide not to fly directly overhead, I'm fine.

                    It looks like they're following the air currents. Very neat.

                      That is amazing at how well synchronized they are.

                          As far as synchronisation goes, this is well-known as "flocking behaviour". Computer simulations decades ago showed that very simple rules for each individual bird could produce similar behaviour.
