"On a rather dreary day in Southern Leicestershire, from 16:50-17:00 small flocks of starlings gathered, forming an enormous murmuration. The local pair of Peregrines saw this as an opportunity for an easy meal. Over the next few days the same thing happened, even a sparrow hawk ended up taking the opportunity; however, filming them is rather difficult. The main focus of this video however is the murmuration, as I’d never seen one so up close and personal before." Credit: Michael
