AND THE ART OF FLYING 

Have you heard of the term Murmuration?

Most of us would have seen murmurations happening in the sky/sea at one time or another. or you might have come across them on Geographical TV Channel.

And many occasions we tend to ignore this Wonderful Mother Nature dance.

Murmuration is noticed with birds and fishes.

“A flock of birds or fish moving in synchrony in a mesmerizing, pulsating, way pattern putatively to confuse the predators” 

Murmuration is done by many species of birds, but the term murmuration is specially used for Starling Flocks.

Hundreds or even thousands of birds/fishes (Of course birds of the same feather) flying together in a whirling and ever-changing pattern is a visual treat.

Birds/fishes turn and twist and change direction at a moment’s notice.

How these hundreds and thousands do these types of manoeuvres?

These are highly complicated movements with such precise coordination that too during the flight with amazing speed!

This is a puzzle and my guess is scientists yet to come out with an explanation.

Any idea how important are birds to humans?

Why we need birds and how to protect them from extinction?

We exploit, torture, hunt, cage and eat them without a second thought.

Please don’t do this.

“Birds are indicators of the environment. If they are in trouble, we know we’ll soon be in trouble.” Roger Tony Peterson
