Murmurations

So on Friday evening, Jeff and I went to the Reedbeds at Ham Wall on the Somerset Levels, to witness the Starling Murmurations that happen there this time of year.


Not one of my photo's, do this spectacular sight justice. 
It was incredible. millions and I mean millions of starlings flying in to roost on the reedbeds. The noise alone, was something you have to hear to believe.


It was bitterly cold. 
I could not feel my fingers but it was so worth it. 
Would definitely go again, on a slightly milder evening or early, when they all take flight.
