Murmuration in Colour

Murmuration in Colour
A whole bunch of starlings is called a "murmuration". A well-known one occurs over Brighton Pier (vaguely visible in the distance) at dusk. I didn't expect anything similar in the afternoon on the Downs. It's quite a rush to hear several hundred birds swooping just a few metres overhead.

I've been to Brighton a number of times, but the only murmuration I saw was the people from south London at weekend.
