I know this has been doing the rounds but every time I stumble across it it takes my breath away, and today I got to see it for reals, in a much smaller {less birds} way. There are starlings that like to hang out on the burned bones of the West Pier here in Brighton, and in the evenings they do this beautiful dance over the water. I saw it this evening as the sun was setting and I thought my heart might explode.
Love looks like this. {I’m considering that my small stone for the day.}

I would stand on the beach and watch this every evening for the rest of my life if I could. If I had any techie knowledge I’d show the video I made this evening, although it’s not as spectacular.
Love that you posted this, and I LOVE your small stone for the day! Partly because, last January, I wrote one of my small stones about this very same thing, which I watched while at a stop light one evening, and it was just incredible. But I didn’t know what it was called until the video started to appear everywhere in the last month or two. xo
I should maybe clarify? I love that you posted this and I love the fact that you wrote about it for your small stone today because I once wrote a small stone about it too. But I love what you actually wrote for your small stone simply because it’s lovely.
Hehe. Thank you and thank you.
I’d like to see what you wrote about it too!
I’ve seen this before, but thanks for posting because it is so amazing. Can you imagine humans trying to do this?…..I would imagine it would be sheer carnage. As I get older, I am continually amazed by birds,they are incredible. They have no choice but to be “out there” in all kinds of weather and yet they continue to sing their song so sweetly and freely.
