Nancy, that was great, as good a murmuration show as I’ve seen! They really do work against predators. I watched starlings at Astoria doing that for many minutes one time, and a Peregrine repeatedly flew through them with no success.

Within a minute of setting up my tripod, I was witness to one of the better displays I have seen. There was a Peregrine chasing them which made it all the better.
