Yes, a wonderful video -- but I like to mute the audio, finding the music invasive & unnecessary. Why do we have that propensity to think we need to lay a heavy-handed soundtrack on top of nature?

Subject: [NatureNS] fabulous video of huge starling flocks
Not sure who has seen the link and video, so I'm resending this amazing video, gotten over the River Shannon (Ireland??), at this link:
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=a7b_1320340524
This video is the basis for my note about sensational flocks of starlings and shorebirds, and the relevance to the VoteMyFundy.com contest and getting out the votes for the Bay of Fundy!!
Cheers again from Jim in Wolfville
